Abstract

With the advancement of illumination technology in automotive industry, significant amount of interest has arisen for laser based light sources for both front and rear end. While numerous amount of work has been done to incorporate laser based illumination for front lights [1], less attention has been paid towards rear and brake lights. Use of lasers as sources of illumination allows utilization of diffractive optical elements (DOEs) which are smaller in size and diffract the incident light at larger angles as compared to their counterpart refractive optical elements.
