Ambient lighting began as a decorative element. Now it performs functions and, as a human-centered light, also influences occupant perception and wellbeing in the car. OLEDs are surface lights with high output and amazing homogeneity—perfectly suited for a variety of curved and irregular shapes for ambient and functional lighting for safety. This week’s in-depth gives you a thorough overlook on OLED lighting technology.
And in the Design Lounge this week, we’ve got another chapter of the ‘family truckster’ story. The market began to move away from station wagons in the 1980s as the minivan’s star rose, followed by that of the SUVs and crossovers such as the VW Atlas, Hyundai Palisade, and Kia Telluride we’ve examined and compared. This week we look at the Jeep Grand Wagoner and Acura MDX. All these vehicles are going progressively upmarket, mostly through interiors with quality materials, bigger displays and HUDs, driver monitoring, premium connectivity and audio, and other suchlike. These various premium upgrades act like magnets, pulling the others along with them.
