LED照明汽车内部照明环境

　　LED照明汽车内部照明环境

　　环境或情绪照明车内主要是高端豪华车领域，如图1中上面的奥迪A8，或热情的汽车后市场系统定制安装。但制造商的视野正在拓宽。

　　当然，汽车中的LED并不是新产品。所有汽车制造商都在使用LED。单一的LED已用于仪表板和仪表板20年以上的背后。头灯和尾灯是最近最引人注目的革新，取代了传统的照明技术。越来越多的LED被用于新的应用，例如背光开关来指示门把手或开窗器的位置。最近，他们发现他们的方式进入脚部，杯架（见图2）和地图袋，以及门和屋面板。更微妙的特性包括低层的彩色LED照明，例如轻轻地突出齿轮棒。

　　The economics and performance benefits of LEDs are convincing the automakers that these devices can provide a significant differentiator in terms of comfort and convenience in the family sedan or compact run-around. Ford， for example， has announced that its 2013 Fusion is the first to sport exclusively LED lighting throughout its interior. The model will be supplied as standard with lighting in the company’s signature ‘ice blue’ color. But， exploiting one of the benefits of LED technology， Ford can offer user-specified tones， including orange， red， green or purple.

　　Many other carmakers are focusing on interior lighting， not just to be functional， but also to add style and differentiation. Some， including Audi， Toyota and BMW are continuing research into ambient lighting to determine optimum colors and brightness levels， and how to improve the delivery of safety information dependent on the perceived mood of the driver. LEDs are likely to play a major role in future automotive interior lighting schemes.
