In vehicle lighting systems, the use of dynamic LED lighting has enabled more efficient and creative system design, with the key challenge being the more creative application of functions. TI supports rapid design through reference designs utilizing single or multiple LEDs, which it stated can ensure high reliability.

In vehicle body electronics systems, various intelligent control functions are being provided, including interactive HMI, motion and voice recognition, automatic dimming mirrors and sunroofs using optical sensing, and backlit LED buttons and knobs.

During the event, Kang Sang-gyun, Executive Director, introduced the MSDI (Multi-switch Detection Interface) product through a system demonstration, which consumes up to 98% less system power compared to existing solutions.
