On November 7, ams OSRAM announced a collaboration with Swedish technology company DP Patterning to jointly develop a demonstration sample for automotive lighting. This demonstration device utilizes a single-layer flexible printed circuit board (FPCB), replacing traditional multi-layer complex designs. According to a Fraunhofer Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) report, CO₂ emissions during the structuring process stage can be reduced by 98% compared to chemical wet etching processes. This demonstration sample integrates DP Patterning's dry circuit board manufacturing technology with ams OSRAM's AS1163 LED driver. The platform enables independent control of hundreds of light points by connecting LEDs, sensors, and actuators within the vehicle via a single continuous circuit. The AS1163 Smart Autonomous Intelligent Driver (SAID) allows dire...

Headlights have long transcended mere illumination, evolving into technological carriers that deeply integrate design, safety, and sustainability. Today, a single beam of light suffices to identify a brand. All this converges in KraussMaffei's “FrontIQ Light,” showcased at K 2025. FrontIQ lighting resembles a three-dimensional light sculpture infused with crystal elements, where design and function blend seamlessly. Swarovski Mobility crystal elements intertwine with an innovative holographic carbon fiber structure, creating a distinctive light signature and a stunning visual experience. Hidden heating wires can be integrated during manufacturing to prevent icing in radar areas under specific conditions. This technology is suitable for diverse modern mobility needs, from urban lighting and spotlights to adaptive lighting systems like dynamic cornering li...
