Products and innovations
The complexity of lighting systems in modern vehicle headlights is increasing. The same applies to customer requirements. A headlamp is no longer just a light source - it is an essential part of the car, truck or motorcycle system and should fit harmoniously into the manufacturer's brand design.
Technologies such as LED or LASER have long since become the present: lighting technology that enables innovative applications but places new, higher demands on the electronics. In order to remain a leader in this field, ZKW is evolving from a system integrator to a system manufacturer.

Great electronics
The reasons we need vehicle lights go far beyond simple lighting. ZKW is developing powerful background helpers so that modern headlights can bring their diverse functions to the streets in the best light possible: Highly precise electronics that make innovative lighting technology possible. After all, powerful lighting takes smart control.
A dazzling innovation
Just a few thousandths of a millimeter in size, but an absolute innovation in vehicle lighting: Laser lights. They allow not only for new headlight designs, but also make street traffic safer.
Autonomous driving and the importance of the right light
City center, a busy street. A pedestrian wants to cross the road, and tries to make eye contact with the driver. But there’s no one behind the wheel. The passengers are sitting comfortably in the back seat. Nevertheless, the communication works. The fully automated vehicle recognizes the pedestrian, brakes independently, and projects a virtual crosswalk on the asphalt. That means the person can cross the lit street safely, after which the vehicle can go on its way.
