Interior & Exterior Lighting

Interior Lighting

The criticality of exterior lighting has been a fundamental aspect of vehicle design. However, in today’s vehicles, in-cabin lighting has become key to enhancing the UX for occupants, helping to create an atmosphere suited to the context of the journey, style preference of the vehicle owner or the mood of driver and passengers.

Many OEMs are now using lighting as a unique brand differentiator, and actively promote the ability to configure and personalize cabin lighting to consumers. This has driven the need for advanced semiconductor-enabled LED technologies and smart lighting control systems.

indie offers advanced LED controllers that enable intelligent lighting systems, replacing today’s discrete component solutions with highly integrated, and fully featured MCU-based single-chip solutions. Our products focus on low power consumption to ensure OEMs can create innovative lighting features without the LED limitations associated with thermal constraints.

Exterior Lighting

Whether it’s better illumination of the road ahead or reducing concerns about the impact of headlamps on other road users, exterior lighting can make a significant contribution to the driver experience.

Solutions for highly controllable and precise illumination used in combination with beam-forming techniques, for example, can create an adaptive driving beam (ADB) that provides precise illumination of the path ahead while minimizing dangerous glare for oncoming drivers. Adaptive headlights are available on select vehicles in Europe and Japan and the National Highway and the Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) has announced a ruling that permits automakers to add ADB for U.S. vehicles.


ADB and other applications such as dynamic turn signals and dynamic positioning lighting use matrix-based LED designs that switch individual LEDs on and off independently. And indie is at the forefront of developing advanced semiconductors that support this precise, ‘pixel-level’ control.
Our exterior lighting controller SoCs feature very high levels of integration to significantly reduce the requirement for external components – minimizing footprint, driving down system costs and power overheads, and simplifying and speeding application development. Smart features and a variety of operating modes in our innovative solutions ensure more robust and reliable operation by reducing vehicle network data bus traffic, while also and supporting dynamic lighting effects such as turn signals without the need for external controllers.
