“…It is becoming clear that vehicle designers are very committed to designing lights to produce a design typical of the brand with great perfection. This work is based primarily on three technological design features: light guide technologies, homogeneously illuminated light areas, and three-dimensional effects [1,2]. The light guide is a dominating design element in lighting technology.…”

“…Light guides support the styling of a lamp like no other optical system before. The freedom of design for creating new signatures and appearances and the execution of a light guide as a rod-shaped or flat expanded element offer the designer maximum potential for individual styling as well as for the development of brand-typical stylistics [1,2].…”

“…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).…”

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.

“…In order to solve the above problems, several new design ideas for car signal lights have been proposed [6][7][8][9]. For example, the indirect light installed with a micro-prism sheet and LED [1][2][3][4][5][6], which is more promising and has been used to construct an automotive rear light with an attractive pattern, as shown in Figure 1b, not only providing a smooth lighting surface, flexibility of shape, but also reducing the amount of LEDs used [10][11][12][13]. Using the technology of micro-prisms films covering the surface of the signal light changed the direction of the output light to provide a more uniform illumination surface and high efficiency.…”

A new LED rear light for automotives is proposed and demonstrated for EU ECE R07 regulation. The full rear light is a combination of a position lamp and a braking lamp, and LED light bars and micro-prisms are involved as their essential components. The micro-prisms are applied to homogenize the output of the rear light to decrease glare and accomplish EU ECE standard. Through experiments, it is shown that EU ECE R07 regulation can be met in the proposed rear light, and 12% (position lamps) and 26.5% (braking lamps) higher candela can be enhanced after the optimization of micro-prisms.
