Abstract
A light unit is provided that includes a thin flexible substrate layer. A number of flexible electrical tracks are formed on the flexible substrate layer. A number of Light Emitting Diodes (LEDs) are arranged on the flexible substrate layer along the electrical tracks and are electrically connected to the electrical tracks such that the light unit is both thin and flexible.
