In terms of product dimension, in the era of automotive electric intelligence, the lamp continues to upgrade, and the company is looking forward to the layout of new lamp products

With the background of intelligence, the lights are the high-quality track of parts segmentation. Since Guoxin automobile team deeply tracked and studied the lamp Market (in-depth investigation of lamp industry chain, lamp disassembly experiment, visit of engineers of lamp enterprises and vehicle manufacturers, investigation of international lamp exhibition, etc.), it has been greatly recognized by customers. As a subdivided automobile part, lamp can surpass the growth of the whole automobile industry, The main reason behind this is the increase in the value of lamps brought about by technological upgrading (high starting point, high elasticity and long duration), and the fundamental reason is that consumers are willing to pay higher costs for lamps (beautiful, intelligent and energy-saving) under the trend of automobile electronization and intellectualization. Under the background of intelligent electrification in the future, As a visual part, the lamp is expected to become the core carrier of the vehicle data flow output, and realize the functional upgrading from "lighting" to "expression".

With the continuous evolution of technology trend, the lamp configuration of new forces of car manufacturing emphasizes science and technology and intelligence. Weilai, Xiaopeng and ideal are equipped with LED as standard. Weilai uses through heartbeat tail lamp, Xiaopeng uses integrated diamond matrix tail lamp and ideal star ring all LED tail lamp. In addition, Weilai is also equipped with intelligent 10 color atmosphere lamp / light waterfall atmosphere lamp, highlighting fashion and intelligence. Zhiji automobile is equipped with 2.6 million pixel DLP projection headlights and ISC pixel signal lights equipped with more than 5000 LEDs to realize v2x intelligent driving integration interaction and intelligent lighting expression. In 2020, the forward-looking matrix LED headlights have been applied in some models with a price of 1 China Vanke Co.Ltd(000002) 00000, such as Haval H6 and Roewe rx5. The subsequent ADB, DLP, laser headlights and OLED lamps undertake LED lamps, and the market is expected to continue to expand.

1) function based - ADB lamp

Adaptive driving beam is an intelligent high beam system, whose main function is to improve the safety of meeting at night. Traditional car headlights are dazzling, which is easy to dazzle drivers in the lane at night, laying hidden dangers for driving safety. In contrast, ADB technology judges the position and distance of incoming vehicles in front through the input of video camera signal, and adjusts the light irradiation area accordingly to avoid glare on incoming vehicles, and meet the vision needs of drivers to the greatest extent. ADB intelligent headlights can improve the night image recognition ability of ADAS system, which will become the technical trend of vehicle safety lighting, At present, it is already a part of ADAS system and is expected to become the standard product of intelligent driving vehicles in the future.

2) based on Intelligent - DLP lamp

The full name of DLP is "digital light processing", that is, digital light processing, that is, the technology needs to digitally process the image signal first, and then project the light. It is based on the digital micromirror device (DMD) opened by Ti (Texas Instruments) to complete the visual digital information display technology. The imaging principle of DLP is that the LED light source draws the picture image through the optical elements such as dichroic mirror, light collecting mirror and lens group, and then draws the picture image through the control reflection of DMD chip, which is reflected to the lens to display the image. DMD chip has millions of micro lenses gathered on CMOS silicon substrate. Each micro lens is installed on a precision micro hinge. The micro hinge can be driven by the digital signal of SRAM (static random access memory) to adjust the direction and angle of the lens to reflect light to the screen to form a projection image. By controlling the angles of millions of micro mirrors in the surface micro mirror matrix, the reflection angle of light can be changed, so that a dark area can be formed in the specified area, and the transmission angle of light and the size of dark area can be accurately controlled, so as to effectively avoid dazzle. At the same time, it can maintain the most light on the road, ensure the maximum utilization of night light, and effectively improve the driving safety at night.

The advantages of DLP lamp are: 1) high pixel and high resolution: ADB single lens pixels are between 110000, and DLP single lens pixels exceed one million. DLP is a more accurate ADB with extremely high resolution; 2) Accurate indication: DLP lens module can enable the driver to turn on the high beam under various road conditions without affecting the sight of other drivers, and provide accurate indication lighting; 3) Anti dazzle: provide a dark area of light to prevent strong light from affecting the driver and pedestrian of the incoming vehicle or the vehicle in front; 4) Programmable and intelligent interaction: DLP technology can provide personalized customization of vehicles, such as light show, which can project various prompt patterns on the road according to the environmental information captured by various sensors.

At present, the unit price of DLP headlights is about 10000 yuan / piece. According to the foreign product price of more than 5000 yuan, if China is put into production in the next 2-3 years and solves the problem of DLP light source technology, the price has a lot of room for downward.

Changzhou Xingyu Automotive Lighting Systems Co.Ltd(601799) as China's leading lamp enterprise, strengthen the development and application of new lamp technology. In 2020, Xingyu's headlamp ADB projector module will be applied; Application of OLED technology in rear combination lamp; Mass production of the second generation of Volkswagen voice interactive cool atmosphere lamp and laser assisted high beam lamp; Gesture recognition indoor lights and pixel headlights modules have been successfully developed. In the first half of 2021, Xingyu successfully developed two types of pixel headlamps, one is the imaging intelligent headlamp with DMD as the core optical device, and the other is the imaging intelligent headlamp with microled as the light source. The headlamp has simpler structure and higher optical efficiency, and successfully solved many technical problems such as imaging optics, electronic drive, heat management and so on. In addition, in order to enhance Xingyu's scientific and technological innovation and R & D capacity, the company established Xingyu Shanghai R & D center in Shanghai.
