Claims15
A lighting apparatus for a vehicle, comprising:
- a housing;
- a screen unit mounted in the housing;
- and
- a projection unit fixed to the housing and configured to radiate light toward the screen unit,
- wherein:
- the projection unit comprises:
- a casing fixed to the housing;
- and
- a lamp section fixedly mounted in the casing at a preset angle toward the screen unit and configured to radiate light toward the screen unit;
- the lamp section comprises:
- a light source mounted in the casing and configured to radiate light;
- a spectroscopic part disposed in front of the light source and configured to diffract or refract the light radiated from the light source;
- a pattern part disposed in front of the spectroscopic part and configured to form an image of the light radiated from the light source;
- and
- a projection lens part disposed in front of the pattern part and configured to diffuse the light radiated from the light source;
- and
- the image formed by the pattern part is selectable from a plurality of images.
