AI Technical Summary
Technical Problem
Modern vehicle headlights require larger housings and more components for increased light output, leading to increased size and cost due to the need for heat dissipation and additional optical elements.
Method used
A headlight assembly with optical elements featuring nanostructures on their surfaces to enhance light transmission and reduce reflection, allowing for reduced size and cost by minimizing the need for heat sinks and additional components.
Benefits of technology
The nanostructured optical elements increase light transmission and reduce reflectance, enabling a smaller and more energy-efficient headlight design with potential cost savings and weight reduction.

Abstract
A headlight assembly (12A, 12B) for a motor vehicle (10) includes a light source (33) and a plurality of optical elements (80) arranged along an optical path with the light source (33). Each optical element of the plurality of optical elements (80) includes a plurality of transmission-enhancing features arranged on a surface (84) thereof. The plurality of transmission-enhancing features are configured to increase the light transmission through the associated optical element and to decrease the reflection from it.
