LED Lights Are Transforming Auto Industry Design

Automotive lighting is undergoing a quiet
revolution, leading to new vehicle designs and
providing enhanced nighttime safety.

Headlights and taillights can now be constructed
in different shapes and patterns that, much like
a cars tail fins in the 1960s, immediately
identify a particular make and model.

And mostly in other countries, manufacturers are
developing new ways to use light to make
nighttime driving safer. By , a vehicles
headlights can be more than just a set of low and
high beams, and instead continuously alter their
light patterns to exactly fit the immediate road
conditions.

The increased use of LED lamps that is allowing
manufacturers to fine-tune this technology. Given
an LEDs smaller size, cars can pack more bulbs
into each headlight, each of which can then be
turned on and off to create unique light patterns
based on road conditions and the amount of
oncoming traffic. This ensures that other drivers
are never blinded by oncoming headlights, while
the driver of the vehicle using the system
receives an optimal view of the road.

Audi, the luxury division of Volkswagen, has been
a leader in lighting technology. Its
high-performance R8 includes an optional laser
high beam. And five of its sedan and sport
utility vehicle models can be bought with an
LED-based high-beam matrix headlight.

The system is so good at not shining light on
vehicles traveling ahead of it that the high beam
can remain on and adjust itself, even if eight
cars are in front.

Were looking at ways to amend the lighting
standard to allow systems to provide even better
lighting, said Gordon Trowbridge, a spokesman
for the agency. Its a frustrating and
time-consuming process. We have an obligation
that the U.S. government not act rashly.
