ams OSRAM’s EVIYOS Shape LED made available
Since lighting is no longer confined to a simple on-and-off function, ams OSRAM GmbH of Premstätten, Austria and Munich, Germany says that, with advances like pixelated lighting, its new EVIYOS Shape (available now) gives it the power to create innovative tailored scenarios.
Pixel-level control in technologies such as EVIYOS offers the flexibility to deliver precise lighting effects that can adapt to the context — from illuminating urban environments with smart projections to immersive experiences in entertainment. By integrating light with intelligence, illumination is both functional and transformative.
In urban and smart city environments, EVIYOS Shape can enhance public spaces and cultural installations through dynamic, interactive projections. In the entertainment sector, it can transform architainment and digital signage with its energy-efficient lighting. For machine vision, EVIYOS Shape can deliver high-precision visual output, ensuring accuracy and efficiency in automated systems and industrial applications. Additionally, it provides custom lighting solutions tailored to meet the specific needs of professional and creative environments, offering bespoke designs that cater to unique requirements.
“EVIYOS Shape has redefined what's possible with smart lighting, unlocking transformative opportunities in urban projection and smart city scenarios,” says Volker Mertens, global director of product management.
Due to EVIYOS Shape and its capability to create tailored scenarios, the lighting application can contribute to sustainability, says ams OSRAM. With more safety, less energy and reduced lighting pollution, products based on EVIYOS Shape can support various UN Sustainability Goals. ams OSRAM says that its decarbonization targets will lead to continuous reductions of the Product Carbon Footprint (PCF).
Recent highlights include the Deutscher Zukunftspreis 2024 for ‘Digital Light’ LED matrix technology. At the end of 2024, a team of experts led by Dr Norwin von Malm and Stefan Grötsch from ams OSRAM was honored with the Deutscher Zukunftspreis 2024 for an LED matrix that turns car headlights into projectors. The LED technology developed by the team opens up new possibilities for innovative designs thanks to its high-resolution light distribution and energy efficiency. As part of their ‘Digital Light’ project, the researchers and their teams have rethought intelligent LED technology and established a basic technology that enables numerous new applications. Through EVIYOS Shape, this technology has now also been honored with a CES Innovation Award.
