A vehicle headlight includes a low beam light module and a appearance light module, which are embodied, arranged and designed such that, in a low beam mode, less than 30% of the light intensity emitted by the vehicle headlight with respect to a vertical orientation above the light-shadow line and with respect to the horizontal orientation in the direction of travel, is generated by the low beam light module.

An anti-glare headlamp for a motor vehicle, including a large number of light units, each of the light units having: a light source element, which is configured to emit light along a first optical axis in the direction of a space; a projection optic, which is disposed behind the light source element in the direction of the emitted light and is configured to project the light emitted by the light source element into the space at a solid angle; and a photodetector, which is situated in front of the projection optic in the direction of the emitted light and is configured to detect the light projected into the space by the projection optic and reflected from an object in the space, along a second optical axis back to the projection optic.

A vehicle lamp includes: a variable light distribution lamp capable of generating a beam having a variable intensity distribution; an infrared illumination device configured to irradiate a front; an infrared camera configured to image the front; and a light distribution controller configured to detect a snow particle based on an output of the infrared camera, generate a light distribution pattern in which a portion corresponding to the snow particle is shaded, and control the variable light distribution lamp.

An apparatus includes an auxiliary light includes a housing defining a front opening, a light emitting in the housing, and a transparent cover is mounted over the front opening. A plurality of fins are mounted to the housing and extend rearwardly from the front opening. The housing defines a cavity of non-rectangular shape from the opening to a backwall of the cavity. A circuit board has a perimeter conforming to the non-rectangular shape. The circuit board may include cutouts for a plug through the backwall. A heat conducting pad, such as graphite is interposed between the circuit board and the backwall and may likewise conform to the non-rectangular shape.

A reflection-type headlamp module, comprising a light source, a light-converging element, a reflecting element and a lens, wherein the light-converging element is suitable for converging light rays emitted by the light source and projecting the light rays; and the reflecting element is arranged on a light-emergent light path of the light-converging element, and is suitable for reflecting, to the lens, the light rays emitted by the light source and projecting the light rays via the lens to form an illuminating light pattern. The reflecting element of the headlamp module changes the propagation direction of light rays, so that the front and rear diameter of the module is greatly reduced. In addition, high-beam light and low-beam light can be switched quickly and noiselessly, preventing the influence of a high-beam light path and a low-beam light path on each other. Further disclosed are a headlamp and a vehicle using the headlamp.
