In a move it says will accelerate LED product development, particularly in the promising area of flat-panel sources for architectural and general-purpose lighting, GE Lighting, Cleveland, signed a broad licensing agreement with Rambus Inc., a technology licensing company based in Los Altos, Calif. The deal gives GE the use of Rambus' patented lighting innovations, including its product reference designs and manufacturing process know-how. The initial focus will be to create a flat-panel LED lighting system for architectural and commercial lighting for global markets, the companies said.

“One of our objectives as a lighting innovator is to quickly launch leading-edge products that can accelerate the adoption of quality LED lighting solutions around the world in commercial and residential settings,” said Michael Petras, Jr., president and CEO of GE Lighting. “We want to provide customers with more unique LED innovations, and this agreement helps us get there faster.”
