“…The Hella lighting experts have designed glowing body systems in two different directions [1][2][3]: on the one hand, to allow the use of light functions with higher demands on the luminous intensity, such as stop light, direction indicator, and daytime running light and, on the other hand, to allow diffusely illuminated three-dimensional elements with a depth effect ( Figure 10).…”

“…New materials also contribute to the new interpretation of innovative lighting effects with a three-dimensional character. A special textile light structure fabric, woven from transparent and black plastic threads, is a flexible and new element for optical devices [3,5]. Lighting functions designed with this textile fabric element and back-lit by a LED arrangement shows striped representations of each individual LED-light source.…”

Signal functions have to fulfill statutory regulations such as ECE or FMVSS108 to provide a clear signal to other road users and satisfy the same standard definitions of lighting parameters. However, as rear combination lamps are very different from one another, and these days are an increasingly powerful design element of cars, automotive manufacturers want an innovative, superior, and contrasting design. Daytime appearances with a new and unusual look and nighttime appearances with unexpected illumination are strong drivers for developing amazing innovative signal functions. The combination of LED technology and different forms of light-guiding optics, new interpretations of common optical systems to develop various styling options, the use of new materials and components for lighting effects, the introduction of OLED technology on the automotive market, and amazing new optical systems, using diffractive or holographic optics in future rear lamps, are paving the way for further, exciting design possibilities. The challenge of new signal functions is to take these possibilities and to develop the appearance and illumination effects the designer wants to reinforce the image of the car manufacturer and to fit harmoniously into the vehicle design. Lighting systems with a three-dimensional design and appearance when unlit and lit, amazing 3D effects, and surprising lighting scenarios will gain in importance. But the signal lights on cars will, in the future, be not only lighting functions in rear lamps; new functions and stylistic illuminations for coming/leaving-home scenarios will support and complete the car’s overall lighting appearance. This paper describes current lighting systems realizing the styling requirements and future lighting systems offering new design possibilities and developing further stylistic, visual effects and improved technologies.
