A light emitting assembly for vehicle interior lighting comprising: - a light emitting element comprising two or more individually controllable light emitters (122,124,126,128), - a controller for controlling the light emitting assembly, - a lens element positioned so as to collect and output light emitted by the light emitters (122,124,126,128), the lens element being configured to: - emit light from a centre of a first light emitter in a first direction and - emit light from a centre of a second light emitter in a second direction, the first and second directions having at least an angle of 1 degree between them, wherein the light emitting assembly is configured to be attached to a structural portion of a vehicle, wherein the structural portion is one of the group consisting of a headrest, an armrest, a B pillar, a C pillar, a parcel shelf, or a door, wherein the assembly is configured to emit light toward a ceiling or side portions of the vehicle in a passenger compartment thereof, characterized in that the light emitters (122,124,126,128) are configured to emit light with different colours, wherein the emitted light of the first and second light emitters (122,124,126,128) produces a pattern in the passenger compartment of the vehicle, and by varying the intensity of the light emitters (122,124,126,128), so that, during a period of time, an intensity of light output of a first light emitter is increased and an intensity of light output of a second light emitter is decreased, the pattern is moved slightly. - a light emitting element comprising two or more individually controllable light emitters (122,124,126,128), - a controller for controlling the light emitting assembly, - a lens element positioned so as to collect and output light emitted by the light emitters (122,124,126,128), the lens element being configured to: - emit light from a centre of a first light emitter in a first direction and - emit light from a centre of a second light emitter in a second direction, the first and second directions having at least an angle of 1 degree between them, - emit light from a centre of a first light emitter in a first direction and - emit light from a centre of a second light emitter in a second direction, the first and second directions having at least an angle of 1 degree between them, wherein the light emitting assembly is configured to be attached to a structural portion of a vehicle, wherein the structural portion is one of the group consisting of a headrest, an armrest, a B pillar, a C pillar, a parcel shelf, or a door, wherein the assembly is configured to emit light toward a ceiling or side portions of the vehicle in a passenger compartment thereof, characterized in that the light emitters (122,124,126,128) are configured to emit light with different colours, wherein the emitted light of the first and second light emitters (122,124,126,128) produces a pattern in the passenger compartment of the vehicle, and by varying the intensity of the light emitters (122,124,126,128), so that, during a period of time, an intensity of light output of a first light emitter is increased and an intensity of light output of a second light emitter is decreased, the pattern is moved slightly.
