Elmos has its headquarters in Dortmund, Germany. The company develops, produces and markets semiconductors and sensors, primarily for use in the automotive industry. One recent Elmos lighting innovation for example is the E522.95. This multichannel LED controller for exterior lighting with advanced network interface capabilities can be connected directly to the Body Control Unit via the car in-vehicle network – therefore local lighting control units are no longer needed.

Cemm Thome develops and manufactures innovative products for interior and exterior automotive lighting. The product portfolio includes automotive LED systems for ambient and functional lighting and connectors inclusive cable assemblies for exterior usage.

From initially five members in autumn 2016 when ISELED was launched, the number of Alliance members today has increased to 30 companies and institutions. The entire value chain is now covered in order to establish ISELED as a standard system solution.

"Covering a broad range of different industry segments the Alliance members give ISELED technology ever greater dynamism and enormously expand its potential range of applications – far beyond the original idea of automotive interior lighting," stated Robert Kraus, CEO of Inova Semiconductors and one of the founders of the ISELED Alliance. “Against this background, the ISELED Alliance is delighted to welcome Elmos and Cemm Thome as new members, further driving the industry acceptance and opportunities of ISELED.”
