I'm not sure if the thoughtful trucker has used a typical light designed for bikes, but they cast light in a much wider area than directly in front of them, and are considerably smaller/less expensive than this proposed design.
That said, this won't solve the "I didn't see you" problem, since it's rarely the fault of the cyclist when a driver is on their phone, fallen asleep, is under the influence, or sucks at driving. 🤷♂️
