Abstract
A lamp for a vehicle includes a laser diode configured to output light, an interface configured to communicate with a brake device of the vehicle, and at least one processor coupled to the interface and configured to receive brake operation information from the brake device via the interface, and control a light output of the laser diode based on the brake operation information.
Claims19
A lamp for a vehicle comprising:
- a laser diode configured to output light;
- an interface configured to communicate with a brake device of the vehicle;
- and
- at least one processor coupled to the interface and configured to:
- receive brake operation information from the brake device via the interface, and
- control a light output of the laser diode based on the brake operation information,
- wherein the at least one processor is further configured to:
- receive object information from an object detection device via the interface, and
- control the light output of the laser diode based on the object information.

A lamp for a vehicle comprising:
- a laser diode configured to output light;
- an interface configured to communicate with a brake device of the vehicle;
- and
- at least one processor coupled to the interface and configured to:
- receive brake operation information from the brake device via the interface, and
- control a light output of the laser diode based on the brake operation information,
