MultiLEDs can deliver bright light in all colors, as they contain red, green and blue chips. Therefore they give lighting designers a free hand when selecting colors, for example for automotive interior lighting. Now Peter Nowotny, an artist based in Regensburg, Germany, is using the tiny RGB light sources in several of his artworks and achieving impressive effects.

Recently, OSRAM Opto Semiconductors is launching two new MultiLEDs for different LED video displays, which are available in black packaging for higher contrast and in white for higher brightness.
