Light collectors with angled input surfaces for use in an illumination system

摘要

A light collector for use with an illumination system, particularly an automotive interior illumination system. The light collector includes several waveguides capable of conducting light through internal reflection with the waveguides being arranged in a stacked configuration. Each waveguide includes an angled input surface at least some of which are oriented at different angles. With this arrangement, light from a single light source can be collected and routed to several locations.
