1. A lamp for a vehicle, comprising:
- at least one light emitting unit;
a sensor that is disposed around the at least one light emitting unit, and that is configured to generate data regarding an object located outside the vehicle;
a housing configured to accommodate the at least one light emitting unit and the sensor, the housing defining an opening through which light that is emitted from the light emitting unit is projected to an outside of the vehicle; and
a cover lens configured to cover the opening of the housing,wherein the cover lens comprises;
a first lens structure having a first refractive index; and
a second lens structure configured to contact at least one surface of the first lens structure, and having a second refractive index that is different from the first refractive index of the first lens structure, andwherein the first lens structure comprises;
a first transparent member having a first thickness;
a second transparent member that is adjacent to the first transparent member along a lateral direction of the lamp and that has a second thickness greater than the first thickness of the first transparent member, and formed to have a step with respect to the first transparent member; and
a stepped portion formed by a difference between the first thickness of the first transparent member and the second thickness of the second transparent member.
