A flexible circuit board populated with light-emitting diodes that emit a blue spectrum of light defines this type of illumination. These devices typically adhere to surfaces via an adhesive backing and are configurable to specific lengths by cutting along designated points. An example is a section of lighting installed under a kitchen cabinet to provide accent or task lighting.
The significance of this technology lies in its energy efficiency, low heat emission, and longevity compared to traditional lighting solutions. Its development has provided a versatile and customizable solution for diverse applications ranging from architectural highlighting and signage to automotive lighting and decorative accents. Their adaptability and cost-effectiveness contribute to their widespread adoption.
