Abstract

Ambient lighting is a crucial component of automotive interiors, and its design significantly impacts both user convenience and perception. Optical simulation technology enables effective optimization of the optical pattern structures in interior ambient lighting, facilitating continuous improvement of design solutions. This paper analyzes the composition and working principles of automotive interior ambient lighting, outlines the design process and key considerations, and conducts simulation studies to enhance the design quality of interior ambient lighting, thereby improving user experience.
