The combination of automobile machinery and electronic technology is the trend of the development of the international automobile industry, which caters to the trend of intelligent development of automobiles. At present, major automobile manufacturers in the world are spending huge sums of money to develop automobile electronic products to equip new automobiles, so that they can achieve better performance. While advanced, safer, and more comfortable, it also better meets the social demands of energy saving and environmental protection and enhances the competitiveness of the brand.
In the current automotive industry, vehicle and parts companies have developed and mass-produced many automotive electronic and intelligent products, covering engines, transmissions, suspension control, steering control, communication systems, etc., of course, also including New and intelligent automotive lamps.
On July 22, technology and market experts from HELLA and related engineering technology and market personnel from a well-known joint venture vehicle manufacturer in Shanghai gathered together to conduct in-depth communication on the cutting-edge technology of automotive lighting, and to discuss the future of automotive lighting. Based on the discussion, the two sides reached some basic consensus, using an LED light source as the carrier, with intelligent follow-up steering (AFS) anti-glare high beam (Glarefree), and other intelligent modules. Automotive lamps will become the mainstream of the market in the future.
HELLA Group, which has been studying the automotive lighting industry for more than 100 years, is a technological guide in this industry and has become synonymous with automotive lighting technology.

Now, LED technology has begun to be widely used in the field of automotive lighting. As a guide in innovative lighting technology, HELLA predicts that this technology will become the future development trend of the automotive lighting industry.
At present, brands including Volkswagen, GM, BMW, Mercedes-Benz, and Ford have launched new models of sedans with LED front and rear lighting with brand recognition effects, which have successfully attracted many consumers, and the target audience is even more Favored Plus.

In addition, according to HELLA, It is predicted that from 2013 to 2019, the market share of LED headlights will increase from 1% to 10%.
Generally speaking, the design of automotive lamps is mainly affected by four factors: safety, environmental protection, shape, and comfort. Headlights have higher requirements for safety, environmental protection, and styling, and in these aspects, LED headlights can better meet the needs.
