Interior lighting & sensing
From ambient lighting to in-cabin sensing, our optical technologies create comfort, safety and seamless user interaction.
Interior lighting and sensing for expressive, intelligent vehicle experiences
Interior lighting and sensing define how drivers and passengers experience the inside of a modern vehicle. From atmospheric ambient lighting and purpose-built functional illumination to high-quality display backlighting and immersive interior projection, lighting has become a central design and user interface and interaction element. Emerging smart surface concepts further extend the possibilities of seamless, integrated interior lighting.
Complementing these visual experiences, advanced sensing technologies such as ambient light sensing and in-cabin sensing ensure optimal brightness adaptation, comfort, and safety. They support features ranging from automatic display-brightness control and glare reduction to presence detection and occupant monitoring.
