that drivers receive clear and precise information, thereby enhancing safety and the overall driving experience.


Trends converging between automotive and general lighting While the complexities and technical differences between automotive and general lighting present significant challenges, they also offer a unique opportunity for knowledge exchange and invention.


The convergence of general and automotive lighting trends, particularly through LEDs, is unmistakable. LEDs have proven that lighting is not merely a functional element; it is an integral component in crafting an experience, controlling an atmosphere, and even enhancing safety and comfort.


Inside cars, human-centric lighting involves using high colour rendering index (CRI) lights for reading lamps and ambient lighting. This allows the true colours of a vehicle’s interior to be more easily perceived, improving the chance to notice and appreciate the craftsmanship and seamless fusion of refined materials chosen to signify premium car brands.


For example, Optisolis technology, ultra- high colour rendering index LED emitters developed by Nichia, provides a spectrum to match natural light. With a CRI higher than 98, this solution provides an accurate representation of different hues in fabrics used within door panels, seating, dashboard, and centre console.


This high CRI is a vital characteristic in the concept of the ‘cockpit of the future’, where the quality of light will contribute to the overall experience in a space that functions as a ‘mobile living room’. With the advent of autonomous driving, passengers will spend more time reading, eating, sleeping, viewing entertainment, and communicating inside cars, necessitating a lighting environment that can adapt to these activities and more.
