Extract below re Lumileds - Daytime Running Lights for newer cars.......!!!!

Great update. Worth watching.


Jessica Amir: First up, 2017 for you guys was really just about advancing your exclusive collaboration, with a leading US company called Lumileds. Just tell us how it all went?

Giles Bourne: Lumileds is producing high performance LEDs for applications, such as automotive daytime running lamps and a third of the cars on the road, would have Lumileds products in it. So those lights always on in cars, they would be Lumileds style high performance LEDs. And the companies like Lumileds are always looking at trying to get higher performance out of their LEDs. So they came to us in 2016 and we embarked on a collaboration, which was using BluGlass’s RPCVD technology, its low temperature deposition technology, to make higher performance LEDs. And so we entered into this collaboration, which really had two phases.

At the end of it, we entered into the commercialisation part of the project. But the second phase really involves us making material, sending it to Lumileds, they then process it and then turn it round. And then we use those results to improve the technique, and it has taken longer than what we would have liked. And that’s largely because there’s a lot more complexity involved in it. But having said that, the technology team are incredibly happy with the progress and we’re breaking new ground with RPCVD, that’s never been done before. And so it still remains a really key project for the company.

And during the end of 2017 we upgraded one of our tools, which is the BLG-300, the bigger of the tools that we have. And we’ve been using that for this project as well and that’s helped enormously. So all in all, it’s a project that is heading in the right direction and then we will certainly update the market, as progress continues along the path.

Will post the full transcript later.

Exciting - GLTAH.
