Abstract
The invention is a lighting unit that can be manufactured repeatedly with a high precision. This problem is solved with a lighting unit having a light source for emitting light. The lighting unit also includes a fiber optic body that defines an optical axis. The fiber optic body extends about the light source to receive and direct the light emitted by the light source. The fiber optic body includes a lateral surface that defines an interface for reflecting a portion of the light impinging thereon to create reflected light. The fiber optic body also includes an optical lens coaxial with the optical axis, the lateral surface and the fiber optic body for refracting another portion of light to create refracted light in a direction parallel with the reflected light.
