The design optimizes the light prescription of free form optics. In the vertical direction to the wall, light ray
is directed from 0° to 45° gradually, all the ray will be stopped by the wall.
In the horizontal direction, according to the design the diffuse angle is 6°,a V-shape high contrast light
pattern will be visible on the wall.
Requirement of casing:
Anodized black, to produce a high contrast V-shape boundary

Assuming the flux of LED is 100 lx, distance of the lens from the wall is 50mm, and the following is a computer simulation:
