The granted patent (Publication Number: US11971148B1) discloses a solid-state headlight design that incorporates a light-emitting diode (LED) light source, an illumination micro-lens, a projection micro-lens, a collimating optic, a metal layer with an aperture, and high-reflectivity and low-reflectivity coatings. The high-reflectivity coating must have a reflectivity of at least 80%, while the low-reflectivity coating should have a reflectivity of at most 20%. The design allows for precise control and manipulation of light output for optimal performance.

Furthermore, the patent includes various claims related to the composition and configuration of the illumination and projection micro-lenses, the coatings used, and the overall structure of the solid-state headlight. The inclusion of multiple layers in the high-reflectivity and low-reflectivity coatings, as well as the option for single or multiple channels in the headlight design, provides flexibility and customization options for different applications. Additionally, the use of lens arrays for both the illumination and projection micro-lenses allows for the shaping and pre-shaping of light intensity distributions, enhancing the overall efficiency and effectiveness of the headlight. Overall, the patented design represents a significant advancement in solid-state headlight technology, offering improved performance and versatility in various lighting applications.
