VEHICLE LAMP ASSEMBLIES AND CONTROL METHODS - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240057236 titled 'VEHICLE LAMP ASSEMBLIES AND CONTROL METHODS
Simplified Explanation
The abstract describes a patent application for lamp assemblies and methods that control operating parameters of aftermarket light sources in vehicles.
- Lamp assembly includes aftermarket light source and controller
- Controller stores defined sequence and operating variable
- Captures input signal sequence via factory input device
- Determines if input signal sequence matches defined sequence
- Modifies operating variable based on input control signal
- Operating variable is associated with operating parameter of light source
Potential Applications
- Automotive industry for aftermarket lighting customization
- Vehicle customization shops for installing and controlling aftermarket light sources
Problems Solved
- Lack of control over aftermarket light sources in vehicles
- Difficulty in customizing and adjusting operating parameters of aftermarket lights
Benefits
- Allows for precise control and customization of aftermarket light sources
- Enhances vehicle aesthetics and visibility
- Improves safety and functionality of aftermarket lighting installations
Original Abstract Submitted
lamp assemblies and methods are provided for controlling one or more operating parameters of at least one controllable aftermarket light source of a vehicle. one example lamp assembly includes an aftermarket light source and a controller. the controller includes a storage medium configured to store a defined sequence and an operating variable. the controller is configured to capture an input signal sequence via at least one factory input device in the vehicle, determine whether the input signal sequence corresponds to the defined sequence, capture an input control signal via at least one factory input device in the vehicle, and in response to determining the input signal sequence corresponds to the defined sequence, modify the operating variable based on the input control signal. the operating variable is associated with an operating parameter of the aftermarket light source.
