A new generation of infrared lasers for LiDAR

LiDAR is a key technology in the development of autonomous vehicles. In combination with radar and camera systems, it acts as the vision of the car, capturing its surroundings. LiDAR (Light Detection and Ranging) uses infrared light to create a precise, three-dimensional map of the environment. The better this visual information, the easier it is for the downstream systems to use it.

UV-C LEDs: using light to fight viruses

The longer the coronavirus pandemic lasts, the more important it is to stay safe and healthy in everyday life. Hygiene measures, such as wearing a facemask or socially distancing, help safeguard against the spread of germs. But light in the right wavelength also makes an enormous contribution to fighting viruses. UV-C LED light can eliminate 99.9% of viruses and bacteria on surfaces, in the air and in drinking water.
