Lumileds NightScape Technology™ and LUXEON 3D LED Automotive Lighting Honored

“On behalf of the BrightStar Awards panel, I would like to congratulate Lumileds on their high-scoring honoree status,” said LEDs Magazine Editor-In-Chief Carrie Meadows. “This competitive program allows LEDs Magazine to celebrate and recognize innovative products of the past year that demonstrate advances in LED lighting technology with flexible features, improved performance and ease of use, enhanced control capabilities, and steps toward greater sustainability in the lighting community.

NightScape Technology is the first broadband white light to significantly reduce the percent of blue content between 400nm and 500nm to less than 2%. The new technology maintains LED efficiency, delivers color rendering better than any other low blue content alternatives, and casts a warm, attractive amber-white light with a CCT of 1900K. With NightScape Technology, it is now possible to deliver outdoor artificial light at night (ALAN) that is better for the environment, reduces light pollution, and is healthier for people and wildlife alike.

LUXEON 3D LED opens new possibilities for car-body signature lighting in space-constrained environments that require homogeneous illumination and flexible line width. LUXEON 3D LED can be applied to a wide variety of automotive lighting applications and styling elements including stop, turn, DRL, grille illumination, animated scenes, and more. It is rapidly becoming the new “chrome” in automotive design.

A world first on the Audi Q9: digital OLED panel with a curved design

The new Audi Q9 introduces the automotive industry's first three-dimensionally curved digital OLED panel, enabled by ultra-thin carrier glass (0.1 mm) that allows a bend radius up to 200 mm. Third-generation digital OLED technology comprises 512 segments across six panels, including Audi’s largest OLED panel to date with 99 segments, enabling enhanced lateral visibility, new safety and communication functions, and personalized light signatures (static, active, semi-active) with 3D effects. Combined with digital Matrix LED headlights using micro-LED modules, the system enhances interaction with other road users and advances Audi’s decade-long OLED development.
