Redefining Automotive Lighting: Insights from CUPRA’s Raval Project

Automotive lighting is undergoing a transformation — from functional components to emotional and identity-defining elements. With the launch of the new CUPRA Raval, this evolution becomes tangible: advanced micro-optics, precise light control and a distinctive visual signature converge into a new generation of design.

How femtosecond laser is enhancing automotive lighting design and manufacturing

In recent years, there has been a clear trend towards miniaturization in the industry. Why? Because smaller means lighter, more efficient, more compact, and more sustainable. However, miniaturization comes with a major challenge: manufacturing precision at microscopic scales in a cost-effective way that ensures feasibility for large-scale production.

Lightmatch: Bridging the optical gap between mock-up and production in automotive lighting

By integrating optical functionality directly into injection moulded surfaces, engineers can achieve lighter architectures, improved efficiency, and reduced system complexity — all critical factors in today’s landscape. However, this shift towards micro-structured optics introduces a rarely discussed but highly impactful problem across the development chain: The optical behaviour of your prototype may have some diferences from your final injected part.

Shelf life: Light therapy for fruit and vegetables

Using light to prevent spoilage: How LEDs could keep fruit and vegetables fresh for longer in supermarkets. According to WWF, food waste accounts for around 10% of global greenhouse gas emissions. About 40% of all of the food produced worldwide is lost or wasted along the value chain. And Austria generates one Million tonnes of avoidable food waste every year, although there is a lack of reliable data for the agriculture sector. More than enough reasons, then, to carry out a detailed analysis o
