The present invention provides an exterior skin for a vehicle that includes angularly distributed, individual, fiber--optic elements formed into the exterior skin of a composite, metal, or other material matrix. The vehicle exterior lighting system includes a central light source for providing optical energy of a desired luminescence. A plurality of optical channels of the lighting system transmit the optical energy and are formed from an optically conductive material. The optically conductive material associates through the outer skin of the structural material. The optical channels include terminating ends of the optically conductive material and are essentially flush with the outer skin of the structural material. This permits transmitting the optical energy through the structural material. The invention also includes means for transmitting the optical energy from the central light source to the optical channels. This allows the optical channels to distribute the optical energy from the structural material in the desired directions and at desired intensity levels.

La présente invention concerne un revêtement extérieur destiné à un véhicule qui comprend des éléments en fibres optiques, distincts, situés au niveaux des angles formés dans le revêtement extérieur d'un composite, métal ou autre matrice de matière. Le système d'éclairage extérieur du véhicule comprend une source de lumière centrale de production d'énergie optique d'une luminescence souhaitée. Plusieurs voies optiques du système d'éclairage transmettent l'énergie optique et sont constituées à partir d'une matière conductrice optiquement. Celle-ci se lie au revêtement extérieur de la matière structurale. Les voies optiques comprennent des extrémités de terminaison de matière conductrice optiquement et sont essentiellement empourprées par le revêtement extérieur de la matière structurale. Ceci permet la transmission de l'énergie optique à travers la matière structurale. Cette invention concerne aussi un dispositif de transmission de l'énergie optique de la source de lumière centrale vers les voies optiques. Ceci permet aux voies optiques de distribuer l'énergie optique à partir de la matière structurale dans des directions et à des niveaux d'intensité souhaitées.
