Osram Introduces Laser-based Automotive Light

Osram debuted the second generation of blue multi-mode laser diodes for cars to illuminate the road condition when driving at night.

The laser diodes doubles the range compared to previous LED solutions to 600 meters and simplifies the system design at the same time, when used in the auxiliary high beam of the car. With brighter light source, Osram’s PLPT9 450D_E A01 laser makes driving at night safer.

“With our newly developed laser diode, car lights can be designed and built even smaller than before – without compromising light output. It combines powerful light with compact dimensions,” explains Walter Rothmund, Marketing Manager Automotive for Emitter Laser Sensor at Osram Opto Semiconductors.

The PLPT9 450D_E A01 laser adds to the extensive portfolio from Osram Opto Semiconductors for the automotive sector. Depending on the target application, developers can decide whether an LED or a laser solution is best.
