Description

ABSTRACT:
A fiberoptic multi-beam roadway illumination device includes a single lens which may be a spherical, vertical cylindrical or horizontal cylindrical lens having a center and a longitudinal axis extending through the center, and at least two separate serial arrangements of fiberoptic conductors and apertures defining separate beam light paths extending in a predetermined aligned relationship with the longitudinal axis of the lens for inputting beam light into the lens to thereby respectively project separate multiple beams of light. A single light source and light control may be used to individually or sequentially cause to be projected the separate multiple beams of light. Alternatively multiple light sources which may be of different color may be used along with a light control to individually, sequentially or simultaneously project different separate colored beams of light.
