OLED Lighting is Preparing for Take-off
No, OLED lights are not about to sprout wings and fly. Rather, OLED lights are going to soon take to the skies in commercial aircraft for passengers to fly comfortably and safely.
With the automotive industry successfully incorporating OLED technology into their vehicles, it was only a matter of time before other transportation sectors began to follow in their steps. Beadlight’s Spinnaker Flexible OLED Light is taking the lead to bring flexible OLED light to the aerospace industry and has already been shortlisted for the Crystal Cabin Award for 2020.
This new technology is the perfect addition to aircraft brands who wish to provide a superior experience in both comfort and visual appeal. “The large ultra-thin window of light helps create a warm ambiance and relaxation within the seat environment,” according to their website. Having an OLED lit environment during a long flight, especially during overnight hours, would help those keep passenger’s circadian rhythm intact, thanks to the absence of harmful blue light waves that keep your mind awake.
Not only is this new technology visually appealing, but it also includes standard flight safety features as well. For example, have you ever noticed that the pilot turns off lights during takeoff and landings?
The reasoning for that is if a pilot must make an emergency maneuver during take-off or landing during the night that requires passengers to quickly disembark the aircraft, everyone will have already had their eyes adjusted to the darkness of night, leading to quicker responsiveness.
