Study of Optical Properties of the Milk Material Used in the Automotive Industry

Abstract

The aim of this thesis is to study a progressive material used in the automotive industry in form of so called Milky material. The thesis provides theoretical background of this material which needs to be studied in depth before it can be used in the automotive headlamps. The study also deals with the description of basic optical phenomena and the principles used in the automotive lighting. The practical part of this thesis is dedicated to the simulations testing the optical properties of Milky and transparent materials as well as a comparison between them. This thesis includes design and simulation of the optical system made from Milky material that is able to align a light to the required direction.
