As new energy vehicles and intelligent cockpits rapidly evolve, user expectations are shifting from basic comfort toward emotional engagement, immersive experiences, and smart interaction.
Light, as the most direct sensory element in a vehicle cabin, is no longer just decorative. It plays a vital role in safety, interactive feedback, and brand differentiation.
Leveraging years of expertise in automotive optics and electronics, KEPO has launched its Dynamic Ambient Lighting Solution, helping OEMs and Tier1 suppliers create a cabin that truly “thinks and responds”.
1️.From Decoration to Interaction: The Evolution of Ambient Lighting
Traditional ambient lighting often served as a purely decorative feature. In the era of smart cabins, lighting value is expanding:
Safety Assistance
Ambient lights integrated into dashboards, door trims, or scuff plates can provide real-time warnings, such as flashing red light strips when doors open, reducing collision risks.
Mood and Scenario Interaction
Lights can dynamically change with driving modes, music rhythms, or voice interactions, creating emotional connections.
Example:Sport mode triggers dynamic red flowing lights, while relaxation mode switches to soft blue waves.
Brand-Exclusive Experiences
Unique light animations and illuminated logos enhance brand recognition and serve as an extension of emotional storytelling.
