Inova, TactoTek collaborate to boost intelligent lighting solutions
The collaboration combines Inova’s expertise in smart LEDs with integrated drivers and TactoTek’s patented IMSE technology, which enables electronics and lighting to be molded directly into 3D surfaces.
Inova Semiconductors, a fabless manufacturer headquartered in Munich, Germany, and Finnish In-Mold Structural Electronics (IMSE) firm TactoTek are joining forces to accelerate the development of intelligent, space-efficient, conformal lighting solutions for the automotive sector.
The collaboration combines Inova’s expertise in smart LEDs with integrated drivers and TactoTek’s patented IMSE technology, which enables electronics and lighting to be molded directly into 3D surfaces — creating thin, lightweight, and reliable smart structures ready for series production, TactoTek said in a press release.
Both companies are members of the ISELED Alliance, founded by Inova in 2016 to create a complete ecosystem for digital in-vehicle lighting.
“Our mission with ISELED has always been to make intelligent lighting accessible, scalable, and efficient,” said Robert Isele, CEO of Inova Semiconductors. “Working with TactoTek extends this mission from electronics into structures.”
“At TactoTek, we are committed to empowering our licensees with practical, manufacturable solutions that drive commercial success and position them at the leading edge of the industry. Inova’s innovation and leadership within ISELED perfectly complement TactoTek’s IMSE capabilities,” added Jussi Harvela, CEO of TactoTek. “Together, we enable lighting that is smarter, lighter, and more sustainable — for automotive and beyond.”
