Car sales in the next ten years doubled LED

IMS latest research report said that in the next ten years, the annual sales of vehicles with LED will now be more than two times. At present, LED is mainly used in car interior, however, now this kind of high efficiency light source is extending its application scope to the outside of the brake light, headlight and day light.

In the past, LED lighting solutions for many applications as the light is too dark, the need for at least 70 LED composed of a group to provide sufficient brightness. Then, with the improvement of technology, now only need less than 10 LED can meet the requirements of the back lamp and brake lights, so that manufacturers from the low energy consumption, high life LED products greatly benefit.

LED is more energy efficient, and emits a soft light, better visual effects than other light sources. In addition, LED is relatively small, but also suitable for manufacturers to combine them into a more attractive design.

LED lamp response time is only 20ms, which is also its traditional tungsten lamp (response time 25ms) compared to another big advantage. The best products of this kind of fast response time to the selected brake lights, in the event of an accident to brake, it can give drivers more time to react, this is equivalent to 60 mph cars less driving distance of 24 feet.

A large number of data show that LED will have a bright future. According to the survey report, the Frankfurt auto show observations and LED and Fox for car manufacturers is expected to 2013, the external application class LED sales will be flat with the internal application class, LED vehicle market value will exceed $1 billion 200 million. Volkswagen and Daimler Chrysler have also joined the industry.

One of the biggest factors contributing to the increased use of LED is the popularity of daytime lights in Europe, which has swept across Canada, Finland, Sweden and the United states. According to reports, daytime lights can significantly reduce the occurrence of traffic accidents.

In the face of the increasing trend of daytime lights, European countries are actively developing standards. The LED is the best choice for daytime lights, is expected to occupy a market share of $100 million, which is the same as the tail light application area revenue.
