This study presents the optical design of light guide prisms for automotive tail light applications to obtain the optimum luminous intensity and the illuminance uniformity. The design was achieved using optical design software, SPEOS. By considering the axial luminous intensity and legal requirements, the optimum prism angles of light guides were determined by simulations. After determining the prism angles, the effect of different surface roughness on the luminous intensity and the illuminance uniformity was investigated. The light guides designed by considering data from the simulation were manufactured as prototypes and their photometrical measurements were made. These measurements were compared to the simulation results. It was observed that simulation and prototype results are well in agreement with each other. Furthermore, it was found that as the surface roughness increases both the luminous intensity decreases and the illumination becomes more uniform.

Abstract- In this paper, a bending machine for tuning optical design of LED module is proposed. The tuning is done by changing the bending angles of each package on a given module with the help of automatic control program. Luminous intensity distribution can be controlled by adjusting the light emission path, which in turn can be implemented as changing the bending angles of individual LED packages on the module. The proposed machine is capable of bending packages to specified angles with errors less than 0.1°. Three-dimensional light distribution for bent package LED modules is also studied based on various application scenarios so that each scenario can have diversified luminous intensity distribution resulting in higher uniformity and better luminance quality. The machine has several advantages, including quick bending, high accuracy, and great customizability. These advantages make the machine meet the requirements of automatic mold forming.

Abstract Imaging Luminance Measuring Device (ILMD) based luminous intensity distribution measurement systems are an established method for measuring the luminous intensity distribution (LID) of light sources in the far field. The advantage of this system is the high-resolution acquisition of a large angular range with one image. For the uncertainty budget, the mathematical description of the system can be divided into photometric and geometric contributions. In the following, we will present a Monte-Carlo approach to analyse the geometric contributions which are the uncertainty of measurement direction and measurement distance. Therefore, we set up a geometric system description based on kinematic transformations that describes the connection between detector and light source position. To consider all relevant input quantities we simulate the adjustment and measurement process. Finally, an analysis of the geometric input parameters is shown.
