ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to improved light devices, such as illumination or signal devices used on vehicles for managing the light reflections from reflective surfaces of such devices. In one exemplary embodiment thereof, a light device includes an array of tubular elements partially embedded in a reflective surface, such as a surface of a lens of said device, which lens focuses, directs or disperses light from the device. The use of such an embedded array of tubular elements causes the light source to appear as a substantially opaque surface when the light device is not operative and permits an effective amount of light to be projected from the light device when the device is operative.
