Seoul Photonics (Viosys) UV LED enters the space market
Seoul Photonics (Viosys) and US Sensor Electronics Technologies (SETi) agreed to jointly industrialize the Violeds technology used by NASA on the International Space Station for biological purification.
- Violeds is an advanced sterilization technology used by NASA to utilize long-wave UV light on the International Space Station (ISS). .
- UV light has commercial and residential applications in medical, polymer curing, household disinfection and purification.
- Violeds does not produce any harmful by-products or influence and is environmentally friendly. The technology is expected to expand its use in many aspects of human life.
The world's leading supplier of UV LED solutions, Seoul Viosys (CEO Jaejo Kim, ) and the US well-known short-wave UV LED pioneer and professional manufacturer Sensor Electronics Technology (CEO Emmanuel Lakios, ) Signing an agreement to agree to joint industrialization and expand the reported sales related to the Violeds technology used by NASA on the International Space Station.
The Violeds technology used in the International Space Station utilizes UVC long waves for ideal sterilization. This technology facilitates the various experimental and aseptic environments of confined space stations and ensures the effectiveness of the test and the safety of crew members.

Violeds Technology International Space Station
Ultraviolet (UV) has been considered to be harmful to the human body and is harmful when exposed to large areas, but ultraviolet light is also essential for life. Vitamin D is a necessity for good health. It is not provided by food, but by ultraviolet radiation from the sun. It is true that UV light is harmful when exposed for extended periods of time or large areas; however, when used in a reliable manner, it can be used in many applications such as sterilization, water and air purification, material hardening and sensors.
Even fluorescent lamps emit a small amount of UV light without any known detrimental effects. High-density exposures, such as direct flashing of ultraviolet light, are adjusted in tolerance bands in Europe and the United States, and are not recommended to be exposed for more than 30 minutes at a distance of 30 cm. If you know how to use ultraviolet light in your daily life, then ultraviolet light is harmless and can improve your quality of life.
Seoul Viosys was founded in 2002 by the world's first near-ultraviolet developer technology alliance. Viosys has focused on the application of extreme UV growth potential with its near-ultraviolet technology for source technology and production capacity. Seoul Viosys has maintained a technical alliance with SETi, a world-renowned far-UV developer and manufacturer. It has been a strategic alliance with SETI for UV technology cooperation in the field of far ultraviolet rays for more than 10 years. Focusing on research and manufacturing, Viosys has hundreds of patents related to UV and now produces more than 1 billion units a year.
Seoul Viosys recently obtained approval for the management control of SETi from the US Department of Defense and the Foreign Investment Review Committee, and decided to expand the SETi capacity by three times for mass production. In addition, Seoul Viosys will expand the related products of the Violeds technology application to minimize the price of mass production.
Emtiuel Lakios, CEO of SETi, said, "SETi-related Violeds technology has a leading UV LED industry and is pleased to be recognized by NASA as a supplier to its international space station," he also stressed, "Violedsis of Viosys in Seoul." It is environmentally friendly and we expect it to be suitable for household appliances that require disinfection but are difficult to disinfect, such as automotive air conditioners and more."
For his comments, Jaejo Kim, CEO of Seoul Viosys, stressed that “Violeds technology for disinfection on the International Space Station is a good example of a 'creative economy', a new technology that will help increase employment, Contribute to the development of the national economy."
Violeds technology?
Violeds is an advanced cleaning technology developed by UV LED Solutions, Inc., Viosys, Seoul, and long-wave UV leader SETI to provide a clean and safe global environment. Not all LEDs are Violeds. It is not correct to treat a UVLED as a lighting bulb. UV LED technology differs from other LEDs in that the technology is not visible to the human eye and has properties that can affect the physical properties of the polymer, human health, and the sterilization of harmful bacteria.
This technology can be applied to biotechnology equipment and medical diagnostic equipment as well as skin and other medical treatments.
*What is UV?
Ultraviolet light is an invisible light line shorter than visible light (visible light) in the electromagnetic spectrum. UV (ultraviolet light) means it is outside the purple.
* UV disinfection needs
According to the US mainstream media TIME magazine and CBN, the bacteria on the mobile phone we use every day is 10 times that of the toilet seat. ABC News has reported that clothes can be contaminated by bacteria in the washing machine. Korean newspapers report that the bacteria on facial makeup products are 22 times that of insoles, and one of the five handbags has more bacteria than the toilet. It is not easy to get rid of bacteria in our daily life. Mobile phones, washing machines, refrigerators, vacuum cleaners, air conditioners, and car air conditioners cannot be disinfected by routine cleaning with soapy water or chemicals. More UV technology can be applied to these products as an environmentally friendly, low power and compact solution. Whether on the International Space Station or at home, UV rays, especially Viosys from Seoul and SETi's Violeds technology, play a vital role in disinfection and sterilization.
*About Sensor Electronics Technology (SETi)
Founded in 1999, Sensor Electronic Technology (SETi) has been a global leader in UV LED technology and has been in production for more than a decade. Based in SC, Columbia, SETi develops, manufactures and markets UV LED devices, luminaires and OEM subsystems. SETi serves global customers in medical, water purification, air quality instrumentation and surface disinfection. The company offers the widest range of UV LED longwaves from 245 nm to 340 nm.
