Design method and design system for vehicular lamp, program to execute designing of vehicular lamp and record medium recording the program

A design system for designing a vehicular lamp, comprising:

• a standard database registering a plurality of standard data utilizable as source data of design data used for lamp designing, the standard data being prepared, respectively, in a predetermined data format having at least constitution data about a constitution of the lamp;
• a technology database registering a shape template having a shape parameter for deformation, to be shape data of the lamp in the design data;
• standard data selection means for generating design data by selecting one piece of standard data from the plurality of standard data registered in said standard database based on design conditions including a performance condition required as the vehicular lamp and a restriction condition given to each lamp;
• and
• morphing control means for preparing lamp data satisfying the design conditions by updating a necessary part of the design data, said morphing control means including shape design means for updating the shape data in the design data by obtaining the shape template from said technology database and setting a value of the shape parameter.

A program for allowing a computer to execute designing of a vehicular lamp, the program being for allowing the computer to execute:

• a standard data selection processing for generating design data by selecting one piece of standard data from a plurality of standard data registered in a standard database based on design conditions including a performance condition required as the vehicular lamp and a restriction condition given to each lamp;
• and
• a morphing control processing for preparing lamp data satisfying the design conditions by updating a necessary part of the design data, said morphing control processing including a shape design processing of updating shape data in the design data by obtaining a shape template from a technology database and setting a value of a shape parameter;
• wherein said standard database is a database registering the plurality of standard data utilizable as source data of the design data used for lamp designing, the standard data being prepared, respectively, in a predetermined data format having at least constitution data about a constitution of the lamp;
• and
• said technology database is a database registering the shape template having the shape parameter for deformation, to be the shape data of the lamp in the design data.

A computer-readable record medium recording a program for allowing a computer to execute designing of a vehicular lamp, the program being for allowing the computer to execute:

• a standard data selection processing for generating design data by selecting one piece of standard data from a plurality of standard data registered in a standard database based on design conditions including a performance condition required as the vehicular lamp and a restriction condition given to each lamp;
