Abstract:
A light source is provided that includes at least two semiconductor light-emitting elements that emit light of different color, a light guide, an electronic control unit, and a light sensor. The light emitted by the elements is injected, at least partially, into the light guide and exits laterally from the light guide. The brightness of the elements can be adjusted by the electronic control unit. The light sensor is arranged to receive the light injected by the elements and laterally exiting from the light guide. The electronic control unit accumulates sensor signals from the light sensor over an integration time interval and compares the accumulated signals with a target value or range to determine a difference, changes a brightness of the elements in response to the difference, and changes the integration time interval in response to the difference or to a change in the target value.

Claim (Index 22):
The lighting device as in  claim 21 , wherein the light guides of the light sources are arranged with end faces spaced apart from each other and the semiconductor light-emitting elements are arranged in an intermediate space between the end faces, so that the light from the semiconductor light-emitting elements is injected into the light guides via the end faces, and wherein the intermediate space has at least one prism provided adjacent to or in the intermediate space, the at least one prism being arranged and adapted so that in a first reflection light that is laterally emitted by the semiconductor light-emitting elements is deflected away from the end face, and in a second reflection this deflected light is deflected transversely to the longitudinal extension of the light guide and is emitted.
