Join this tech talk to learn how to create a tail light turn indicator using the LucidShape Procedural Surfaces design function. We'll demonstrate how to position a reflector and lens combination correctly and adjust it so that its light pattern complies with the ECE regulation. The corresponding test table and the Ray History Sensor are used as analysis tools. We'll also show how to integrate a luminance camera into the model to create photorealistic images of the lights when they are on and off, and we'll use the images to animate the turn signal in LucidShape.
