In an automotive lighting apparatus, at least one lighting component generates a corresponding light field. The lighting component is aligned such that the light field conforms to an illumination profile having a cutoff region meeting a cutoff criterion. At least one actuator is mechanically coupled to the lighting component to aim the lighting component in a direction other than that in which the lighting component was aligned. A control component operates the actuator based on the speed of an automobile in which the lighting component is installed. The actuator is then configured to aim the lighting component in the direction other than that in which the lighting component was aligned so that the light field thereof conforms to another illumination profile meeting another cutoff criterion.

A lamp unit includes a light source including a first light emitting element that emits visible light and a second light emitting element that emits infrared light, and a rotating reflector that rotates about a rotational axis while reflecting visible light and infrared light emitted from the light source. The light source is configured such that part of the second light distribution pattern overlaps with the first light distribution pattern and such that a region of the second light distribution pattern, which does not overlap with the first light distribution pattern, is provided on the side closer to a middle region in front of the vehicle with respect to the first light distribution pattern.
