Valeo Joins ISELED Alliance

ISELED, the open alliance formed to develop and market an innovative in-vehicle LED lighting concept within a full ecosystem, has made automotive supplier Valeo its newest member.

Valeo will take place alongside the other partners of the ISELED alliance: Inova Semiconductors, Dominant Opto Technologies, Lucie Labs, NXP, TE Connectivity and Pforzheim University. Valeo will bring its wealth of expertise, experience and ability to innovate to the alliance, especially in interior and ambient lighting.

“Valeo is pleased to join ISELED, to bring its know-how in lighting systems to the alliance and to contribute to the emergence of new innovative LED solutions,” said Christophe Le Ligné, R&D and product marketing director at Valeo Visibility Systems.

The ISELED Alliance operates as an ecosystem for innovative in-vehicle digital LED lighting, with partners working together to create a complete solution including hardware and software. The core concept integrates a smart LED driver with three color LEDs into a tiny package, which reduces costs, simplifies control, and expands the functionality of LED lighting and display solutions.

“Valeo is a recognized technology innovator in many areas, including automotive interior and exterior lighting,” said Robert Kraus, CEO of Inova Semiconductors. “With operations in 32 countries, it brings a truly global scale to the ISELED Alliance.”

The ISELED Alliance represents an ecosystem around the new concept of a digital LED for car interiors, for which the alliance members offer a complete system solution of hardware and software components. The founding members are Inova Semiconductor, Dominant Opto Technologies, NXP, TE Connectivity and Pforzheim University.
