[News] Reshaping Light Sources | Refond Introduces 1.X Optical Technology

As automakers pursue greater cost efficiency and more integrated automotive lighting designs, conventional optical solutions are increasingly reaching their limits. Mainstream automotive LED light sources often suffer from poor beam uniformity, glare, and low light utilization. Conventional solutions also rely on complex secondary optical modules, resulting in more components, greater optical loss, larger system size, higher power consumption, and higher overall costs.

As a professional LED light source solution provider, Refond leverages more than 20 years of expertise in backlight and light-uniformity technologies to introduce its innovative 1.X Optical Technology Solution. By optimizing the light source at the foundational level, the solution combines compact design, high efficiency, and cost advantages to deliver an integrated light source solution for high-quality automotive lighting.


1.X Optical Technology for Rectangular Uniform Lighting

01 Device-Level Packaging | Multi-Dimensional Cost Optimization
Refond's 1.X Optical Technology adopts an integrated “LED Lead Frame + Molded Lens” architecture, directly integrating the optical system into the light source.

By creating a rectangular beam and shortening the optical mixing path, the solution reduces the required number of LEDs and ICs, while potentially eliminating reflectors and reducing wall thickness. This simplifies the lamp structure and enables significant system-level cost reduction.

02 High Optical Efficiency | Enhanced Brightness
Compared with conventional optical solutions, Refond's 1.X Optical Technology delivers higher optical efficiency and 5% higher brightness under the same specifications.

With no dark spots, excellent uniformity, and sharp, well-defined beam edges, it minimizes optical loss and meets automotive lighting requirements for high performance, high efficiency, and superior uniformity.

03 Customizable Beam Patterns | Versatile Applications
Based on rectangular uniform lighting technology, the 1.X Optical Technology enables precise light control and significantly enhances optical design flexibility.

It supports customized beam patterns, wide/narrow angles, red/white single-color options, and red & white rectangular beams, providing a direct alternative to conventional solutions.

The white rectangular beam solution is ideal for applications such as automotive logo lamps and reading lamps, effectively addressing beam uniformity challenges.

The red rectangular beam solution is designed for full-width rear lamps and pixelated interactive lighting, helping customers reduce structural costs while achieving innovative lighting designs.

Innovating for the Future of Intelligent Mobility
Refond's innovative 1.X Optical Technology addresses the limitations of conventional light sources through integrated package and optical design.

By integrating the light source and optical structure, it delivers better beam uniformity, higher optical efficiency, and lower system cost, bringing a significant advancement to automotive lighting applications and helping customers build differentiated product competitiveness.

Looking ahead, Refond will continue to invest in innovative R&D and product development, delivering high-efficiency, high-performance, and high-value-added LED light source solutions to meet evolving market needs and advance innovation in automotive and general lighting.
