EU and other countries are announced a new car to install DRL, and completely banned, the cut-off Incandescent Act, together with the Safety test of readiness LED Lights and the main Illumination Rising demand. Market opportunities for the catching, LED components, LED driver IC and system vendors to step up dishing out a complete program to eat not this great opportunity. EU norms in 2012, all vehicles must be installed on new cars the exclusive DRL (DRL), to ensure that traffic more secure. In addition, including the European Union, the United Kingdom, Japan, New Zealand, Australia, Canada, the United States, Argentina and other countries have announced no later than 2014 will be fully banned incandescent lamps with cut-off. In the national policy, driven light-emitting diode (LED) lighting DRL and the main application as if it has become the light source and lamp post lighting market, LED manufacturers full layout of the business focus. National policy to accelerate LED lamp / lighting universal primary To make travel more secure, the EU took the lead on September 24, 2008 announcement, to demand that began in February 2011, all cars and small trucks must be equipped with new models DRL; and other goods vehicles, buses are Since August 7, 2012 onwards to be equipped with DRL. Outside the EU, other countries also regulate all vehicles one after another set of new cars be fitted with daytime running lights, the current Canadian regulations only allow light to replace nearly DRL. Experts point out that, due to DRL vehicles must maintain brightness, power consumption of traditional DRL headlights 25 to 30%, so have the advantage of low power consumption and long life LED light source to be a vendor R & D of new trend, if Use LED DRL headlights only to 10% of electricity consumption. Consider traffic safety and energy conservation demand trends, the development of LED DRL will be imperative, as LED lamp manufacturers to expand new market opportunities. Today, Car Manufacturer Audi (Audi) to promote LED DRL most active, its A8, R8 and A4 series have switched with LED DRL, A8 with Philips (Philips) Lumileds of LuxeonEmittor as diurnal light source; R8 and A4 are used Osram Opto Semiconductors ( OsramOptoSemiconductor)) of AdvancedPowerTopLED and GoldenDRAGONLED; even published in 2010 the third generation A8 will be fully imported LED DRL. In addition, many car manufacturers first half of this year's new models are also equipped with LED daytime running lights, such as the Mercedes-Benz (Benz) and so on. In fact, in addition to DRL addition, LED has been widely used in interior lighting, including the instrument panel, backlit buttons, sunroof, head-up display and so on. Osram Opto Semiconductors, said the car demand color selection (ColoronDemand) feature allows manufacturers to use company-specific identification of color, to create differences with competitors, or in different series using different colors to be distinguished. In addition, LED lights for use outside the proportion has continued to rise, such as the 2008 Cadillac (Cadilac) Escalade first vehicle with LED headlights. Philips Lumileds says, listing Lexus (Lexus) LS600h, and Audi R8 LED headlights have been loaded, which Lexus is selected, and Philips Lumileds Nichia (Nichia) high-power LED. As for the third x LED lights, car Taillight , Turn signals, side lights, lamps and high beams and other recent demand is also growing. LED is also frequently used in the Model section of the vehicle taillights, in addition to considering small size, temperature stability and long life characteristics, another advantage for the fast response, the next step in driver x car plate light moments. For example, Nissan (Nissan) Tiana after the lights and Crisler (Chrysler) No. 3 x lights, turn signals and lamps have switched after the use of LED light sources. Even LED x lights, turn signals, etc. Lights Technology has matured, but the LED headlights, the former Fog lamps And other lighting categories not popular, however to benefit from the national DRL decrees, LED DRL headlights have become the hot application. The other hand, in order to comply with energy saving trend, countries from 2009 onwards to stop production, to ban incandescent bulbs, in particular, the EU will start in September this year to prohibit the Sell 100-watt conventional bulb, in 2012 banned all traditional light bulbs, for the earliest implementation of the region.
