Abstract

The present disclosure describes a lighting system for vehicle interiors, comprising a light source that emits visible light and a component arranged relative to the light source in such a manner that light emitted from the light source passes through it. The lighting system further comprises a transparent substrate with a surface area through which light emitted from the light source passes, and a lenticular screen structure having a plurality of regularly arranged lens elements and being formed on the surface area of the transparent substrate. The present disclosure also describes using the lighting system and its component to illuminate the interior of vehicles, wherein generated three-dimensional lighting effects can be perceived differently by a viewer/occupant in the interior space, depending on the angle of viewing.
