Abstract

Their small size, powerful light emission, extreme reliability, low energy requirement and long lifespan support the widely held view that LEDs are 'the technology of the future for automotive lighting.' In fact, some manufacturers go so far as to predict that the incandescent bulb is headed for extinction.

Given that LEDs represent a new light source for front automotive lighting, they also require regulations to control their application. While LED headlamps are already allowed in the US, their application is limited in Europe. By 2008, however, new ECE regulations will be enforced, radically changing the appearance and performance of vehicle headlamps (and therefore the complete appearance of cars) for good.

Although manufacturers expect early LED headlamp applications will cost more than HID, the two technologies could be price-comparable by 2011. That could trigger a price war, forcing a downward trend on unit prices. But by how much remains to be seen. Some manufacturers also think it is very possible that HID will disappear altogether in favour of LEDs.

This exclusive report addresses a number of topical issues facing the automotive LED market, including:

  • To what extent will LED threaten HID lighting technology?
  • What are the design opportunities from using LEDs for rear lighting?
  • As LED technology improves, to what extent are we seeing fewer LEDs per taillight?
  • How are LEDs making inroads into turn signal/flasher and mirror applications?
  • After proving their capabilities in automotive rear signal and brake lamps, white LEDs appear to have demonstrated their potential as vehicle headlamps. How will this market develop?
  • What are the opportunities for white LED headlamps and auxiliary lights?
  • Cost will be a key determining factor for how quickly LED applications increase. How much extra will carmakers have to pay for exterior LED applications?
  • A key factor with LEDs is removing the heat from the compact packages. How are manufacturers addressing this?
  • Are there any moves toward LED modules? What are the benefits from this approach?
  • Organic LEDs appear to be the latest display technology to offer promise for automotive applications. Why now? What are the advantages of using OLEDs?
  • How fast is the LED signal lamp market growing in North America?
  • How much is the European CHMSL market worth?
  • What is the potential market value of the European LED headlamp market in 2010?
