Furthermore, from the patent US Pat. No. 7,648,262 B2 It is known to use a segmented lens to optimize light distribution. The optimized in this patent light distribution corresponds to a low beam with increase (asymmetric low beam). Segmentation of the lens surface for the benefit of color correction is not applied. From the EP 2 924 339 A1 is also known a direct imaging light module.
