Illumination Solutions using LEDs and Optical Films

LEDs are rapidly taking over as flexible and low cost light sources for a wide range of novel illumination solutions. By combining LEDs, structured light cavities and the correct combination of optical films, a wide variety of uniform and non-uniform light sources can be created for Signage, Lighting and Displays.
Approaches include:

• Edge-lit waveguide solutions;
• Light box solutions;
• Complex illumination structures.

For example, working with Bayer, Microsharp has designed and now supplies a highly uniform light source for an optical sensor medical instrument consisting of a shaped plastic light guide with optical films applied. Microsharp is able to use its knowledge of backlights and optical film design to provide a lighting design service. In addition Microsharp can source and supply lighting units.
