Abstract
Disclosed is a lighting control system of a vehicle seat switch. The lighting control system includes a movable object mounted to be rotatable with respect to a stationary object, a switch mounted on the movable object and configured to emit light, a position recognizer installed in the switch to sense position information of the switch, and a controller configured to receive the position information and to adjust an intensity of light emitted by the switch based on the position information.
Claims16
A lighting control system for a vehicle, comprising:
- an armrest rotatably mounted on a seat of the vehicle, the armrest mounted to be rotatable with respect to the seat, the seat being stationary;
- a switch mounted on the armrest and configured to emit light;
- a position recognizer installed in the switch to sense angular position information of the armrest;
- and
- a controller configured to receive the angular position information and to adjust an intensity of light emitted by the switch based on the angular position information;
- wherein the controller controls the switch to performs fade-out based on the angular position information so that the intensity of light emitted by the switch is gradually decreased when the armrest is rotated in a first direction, and
- the controller controls the switch to perform fade-in based on the angular position information so that the intensity of light emitted by the switch is gradually increased when the armrest is rotated in a second direction opposite to the first direction.
