Abstract
A light system including: a light source; and a light guide aligned with the light source so that light from the light source directs light into the light guide, wherein the light guide has a concave region that light extends through so that the light extending from the concave region homogeneously illuminates an article of manufacture within an interior of a vehicle.
Claims23
A light system comprising:
- a light source;
- and
- a light guide aligned with the light source so that light from the light source directs light into the light guide, with the light guide including an upper surface and a lower surface and a height between the upper surface and the lower surface, wherein the light guide has a concave region that light extends through so that the light extending from the concave region homogeneously illuminates an article of manufacture within an interior of a vehicle, with the upper surface and lower surface being curved in the concave region and the upper surface includes optics that redirect the light out of the concave region.

A light system comprising:
- a light source;
- a guiding device;
- and
- a light guide in communication with the guiding device that light from the light source extends into the light guide through the guiding device and extends along a length of the light guide, wherein the light guide includes a curved upper surface extending along the length and a lower surface extending along the length opposite the upper surface with the lower surface including a concave region formed in the lower surface along the length of the light guide so that light directed through the concave region provides a uniform distribution, amount, intensity, or a combination thereof of light to an article of manufacture within an interior of a vehicle;
- wherein the light guide is configured to be located a predetermined distance from the article of manufacture to provide the uniform distribution, amount, intensity, or a combination thereof of light on the article of manufacture.
