New light-guide material for automotive lighting

--- Side light optical fiber

Optical fiber is polymerized by high molecular compound, it is a kind of light-guide material for decorative illumination. With special high molecular compound as its core material and high-intensity, transparent and inflaming-retarding engineering plastics as its outer shell, optical fiber is featured by high light-guide, low-attenuation, photodetachment, free of maintenance, long performance life, abundant and irregularly-changed colors and strong plasticity. Therefore, it can be used widely on all sorts of decoration engineering, such as building , nightclub, disco, hotel, market, plaza and museum, and honored as an ideal material to replaced current means of decorative illumination.

We only discuss about the LED light source matched with side light optical fiber here used in automotive lighting and daily traffic safety.

LED combined with side light optical fiber
1. LED is the light source (should with LED driver under 12v or 110v state).
2. Should collect the light beams into the light optical fiber (different LED with different light emit angle, so as to different collect distance).
3. Different LED with different brightness, so as to different light evenness and brightness.

Show as following:

 LED Matched with side light optical fiber applications:

This kind of solid side light optical fiber will be a new popular trend of automotive decorative lighting, it is more even, reliable and easier to realise than traditinal SMD LEDs style automotive lighting products.
