Research and Markets has announced the addition of the "OLED Automotive Lighting - 2014" report to their offering.
This report provides an analysis of the emerging OLED automotive lighting market, technology and suppliers, with specific focus on OLED technology's suitability and readiness for automotive applications. It also provides detailed eight-year forecasts for the OLED lighting business specifically for the automotive segments, with separate revenue and volume estimations.
In Chapter Two it discusses how automakers evaluate new technologies, and related examples that are currently finding inroads alongside (and perhaps overlapping with) OLED lighting: smart lighting and smart windows. It also presents one key European automaker's thoughts on OLED lighting.
Chapter Three covers applications for OLED lighting in the automotive sector, including exterior uses (e.g. rear lights and indicators) and interior uses (e.g. dashboards and interior illumination), plus challenges to adoption.
In Chapter Four the report reviews trends shaping OLED lighting commercialization in general, the tradeoffs in improving the technology's three most important criteria (lifetime, luminance, efficacy) and how these tradeoffs specifically matter to the automotive sector. It also discusses the future of flexible OLED technology in the automotive sector and likely timeline for arrival.
In Chapter Five it highlights efforts from several individual companies, mainly in Europe and Asia, working to advance OLED lighting for automotive applications. And finally, in Chapter Six, the report presents eight-year forecasts for OLED lighting in automotive lighting applications, both for panels and luminaires.
