LEDs in maritime applications
LEDs are increasingly being used in civil and military marine applications due to their high efficiency and longevity. Their low heat generation and robust construction make them ideal for use in extreme environments, which are often found on ships.
LEDs provide improved lighting for navigation systems, communication devices and interiors, increasing the safety and effectiveness of the crew. They also help reduce energy consumption, which is particularly beneficial for submarines and other ships with limited resources.
Their flexibility also enables use in underwater lighting and stealth technologies, as they can operate in different colors and intensities. LEDs thus not only improve the functionality but also the strategic capabilities of military naval forces.
