Fog Lamp and Foreground Illumination

Fog Lamp SS3 Pro Case Study

Most recently, a very powerful TIR collimator optic-based fog lamp system, SS3 pro was introduced by Diode Dynamic.  Its peak intensity approaches almost 12,000cd which is near the legal max limit of 14,400cd. Boasting ±45 degree horizontal beam stretch and ±6 degree vertical tight spread.

I had the opportunity to observe and was able to carefully recreate the optical model for simulation-based analysis that revealed a more high-resolution understanding of its performance and observation I would like to share.
