Abstract
An automotive light includes a substantially basin-shaped rear body; a front lenticular half-shell arranged to close the mouth of the rear body and includes a ribbon-like, transparent or semitransparent portion; and a first lighting assembly structured to emit light when electricity powered, and arranged within the rear body to backlight the ribbon-like portion of the front lenticular half-shell. The first lighting assembly includes a light-guide plate made of light-conducting material and a linear-extending light source within the rear body next to the light-guide plate, and structured to direct emitted light towards the inside of the light-guide plate. The linear-extending light source includes a row of light-emitting diodes which face the light-guide plate and are placed spaced side-by-side to one another, and a power-supply and control circuit which sequentially turns on the diodes so as to illuminate in sequence an equal number of segments of the light-guide plate.
