Deep grilled "light factory" Audi's car lights history: Audi is a step by step into the car lighting pit?

Mention Audi, we are the first to think of the incomparable headlights, as long as the road, the car may become the fastest way to identify Audi. But since when, Audi's headlights began to make people sit up and take notice? Audi is how step by step into the car lighting pit it? This is the topic to be discussed today. A brief introduction of the background, in the era before the advent of xenon lamp, halogen lamp in the era of Audi has been in soy sauce in the lighting, in other words, also did not find their own potential, so the story had to be told from the era of xenon headlamps. Audi 4000, was still using halogen lights xenon headlamps era 1992, Hella and BOSCH developed the world's first near light xenon headlamps, but the first for the automotive lamp is not Audi, but BMW, exactly is the second generation of the BMW 7 series. The xenon headlamps, which are used to discharge gas, greatly improve the visibility of the light, the speed and the service life of the lamp. So in 1994 the first generation of Audi A8 as Audi's flagship model landing, of course, with the most advanced xenon headlights. The first generation of Audi A8 in see buddies with xenon headlamps models, Germany as one of the three carriages of Benz would fall, so Benz in 1995 in the seventh generation E class car using a xenon lamp. It is also, it can be said that Audi set off a revolution in the lights. Followed from the beginning of 2000, manufacturers have started on the vehicle dynamic response of headlamps interested in lighting manufacturers, enterprises and other organizations began to study the servo steering headlight system. 2003, BMW, TOYOTA, Opel and other manufacturers began to use their own car in the steering headlights, Audi, of course, will not be willing to, the same year, Audi A8 is equipped with a follow-up steering headlights. LED headlamps xenon headlamps in time after the debut of the LED lamp is. It is a solid state semiconductor device that converts electrical energy into visible light. LED headlamps can only use 12V power supply, and instant lighting without delay. 2003 at the Geneva motor show, Audi has been in the Nuvolari Quattro concept car to show the full LED headlights, but after this Audi did not implement the LED headlamps to the production car. Audi A8 W12 models in 2004, Audi will be equipped with LED lamp in the A8 W12 model, making it the first equipped with LED daytime running lights of the car. LED lamp with good response, 2005 Audi will LED into A6 Avant taillights, with nanosecond response speed and light intensity, high visibility is also held in extreme weather, a few years later, Audi once again to the tail to upgrade, upgrade to LED light belt tail, and for the first time in Audi A6. Audi A4 2.0TDI Audi A5 2.0T Quattro coupe Avant 2007, Lexus joined the LED headlamps in its LS600hl models, became the first equipped with LED lamp manufacturers. Audi look at this line which ah, and then launched a full LED headlamps equipped with Audi R8. Robbed of the limelight is naturally very unhappy, so Audi will be put under the LED headlamps more models, which makes the name of the lamp factory growing. In the realization of the full LED headlamps, LED light tail lights, LED daytime running lights production, Audi began to look at the steering lamp. In 2012, Audi R8 use dynamic steering lights, and later joined the dynamic steering lights on more models. Audi dynamic cornering light when everyone thinks Audi will have fun flying when the automobile lighting, actually Audi did not stop the pace of research. Because Audi think the headlights with still no way to rival the gap, so Audi decided to let people around the world are amazing headlights, so there is a matrix LED headlamps, and headlamps matrix can be said to represent the Audi was in the field of lamp is made very high attainments. Equipped with Audi A8L headlamps matrix matrix LED headlamps is composed of 5 reflecting unit arranged in a high beam lighting components, on top of each reflection unit, is a small 5 LED light source, LED light source can be independent of each small light, close or dark, 5 groups of a total of 25 small LED light source fit together, can realize the variable on the front area, accurate lighting. The same night meeting or to have a car in front of driving, matrix LED headlamps will automatically extinguish part beam LED lamp body, to prevent the surrounding vehicle driver risk due to dazzling and. After the LED era CES show in 2013, Audi released the OLED (organic light emitting diode) lighting technology. Compared to the LED lighting technology, the matrix OLED taillights light is very flat and uniform, and will not weaken. Audi through OLED technology, developed a smart taillights group, the group not only the appearance of intelligent taillight is very brisk, and can identify the visibility will be adjusted automatically according to the brightness of tail light speed, traffic, weather and other factors, to remind the car distance, can greatly improve the active safety of vehicle. The first to enter the era of laser headlights while we sigh lamp factory strength, Audi has quietly entered the era of laser headlights. 2014, Audi launched the first laserlight in the CES exhibition using laser headlights Sport Quattro concept car. And then introduced a LMX with a laser headlight R8. Compared to xenon and LED, the brightness of the laser headlight is higher, you can control the direction of the laser beam through a lens, pointing to the front, the distance is two times higher than the LED beam. 2015 CES exhibition,
