From April 8 to 9, Refond Optoelectronics showcased its innovative solutions—including Mini LED backlight, Mini LED direct display, and automotive lighting—at the 5th DVN Automotive Interior & Smart Cockpit Workshop in Cologne. During the event, Refond delivered a keynote speech highlighting its technological breakthroughs and innovative vision in the field of smart cockpits.
As the wave of intelligence continues to transform the automotive industry, the vehicle cockpit is rapidly evolving from a functional space into a “third living space” that integrates entertainment, safety, and comfort.
Refond Optoelectronics, with deep insights into industry trends, is pioneering new applications for in-vehicle lighting and display technologies. By extending interactive displays beyond the traditional central control area, Refond enables coverage across co-driver zones, armrests, electronic mirrors, intelligent interior surfaces, panoramic sunroofs, and virtual A-pillars. This expansion is accelerating the cockpit's transformation from a "functional space" to an "emotional experience," fundamentally reshaping the boundaries of human-vehicle interaction.

As the core medium of human-vehicle interaction, in-car displays play a pivotal role in enhancing the cockpit's intelligence, tech appeal, and immersive experience. Mini LED technology, with its high brightness, strong contrast, low power consumption, and flexibility, is perfectly aligned with the multi-screen, interactive evolution of vehicle displays.
Refond's Mini LED backlight solutions, featuring optimized optical packaging design, support ultra-thin 0OD structures and pixel-level precision dimming. These solutions offer tailored performance for diverse display scenarios, driving dual breakthroughs in immersive interaction and lightweight design within smart cockpits.
In the domain of interior lighting, Refond has launched its Smart RGB ambient lighting solution, breaking beyond traditional lighting to focus on dynamic interaction scenarios. It features ultra-low 0.3W power consumption, independent RGB channel driving, and 256-level grayscale dimming/color adjustment. Scene-based lighting effects can be customized to elevate the experience from functional lighting to emotional interaction.

At the workshop, Refond also unveiled its latest interactive screen LED solution designed specifically for in-vehicle environments. Featuring an integrated lamp-to-module structure, it achieves a “light without visible source” aesthetic that enhances vehicle design. When connected with the vehicle system, it supports smart pixel-pattern lighting expressions, unlocking more intelligent interactive potential from the inside out.
Refond Optoelectronics will continue exploring the multimodal interactive potential of its innovative technologies in smart cockpits and automotive lighting. By integrating lighting, display, and sensing technologies into a comprehensive product matrix, Refond aims to meet diverse user needs and deliver forward-looking solutions for smart mobility—driving the global evolution and upgrade of automotive lighting and display technologies.
