METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR A LIGHTING ASSEMBLY WITH AN INTEGRATED AUXILIARY ELECTRONIC COMPONENT PORT

摘要

A lighting fixture includes a plurality of light sources and an auxiliary component bay. The light sources and auxiliary component bay may be independently energized to cause one or more of the plurality of light fixtures to illuminate and/or to energize an auxiliary electronic component that is removably coupled to the auxiliary component bay. The auxiliary electronic component may include a camera, a battery pack, a work light or any other electronic device that may utilize operational power from a vehicle to perform a function. The auxiliary electronic component may include its own power converter which may accept a vehicular power signal to derive operation power therefrom. The lighting fixture may produce a beam pattern that is optimized for use when the auxiliary electronic component includes a camera. The auxiliary electronic component may be cooled by a thermoelectric device coupled to the component bay.
