The future of automotive lighting
Due
to over 60% of all road accidents taking place in the dark a lot
of money is being invested in safety. Safety at night means only
2 things, to see and be seen. Since the introduction of the Halogen
lamp in 1962 by Philips the technology has remained the same. Even
though advancements have been made such as the H7 a light source
for the future had to be developed. In 1988 Philips introduced the
Gas Discharge light source or XENON lamp. This innovation more than
any other brings truth to the saying 'Seeing
is believing'
