VEHICLE HEADLIGHT
A vehicle headlight (1) includes a first lamp unit (10), a second lamp unit (20), a region determination unit (55), and a control unit (CO). A first irradiation spot (S1f) overlaps with a second irradiation spot (S2). The control unit (CO) controls the first lamp unit (10) so that an amount of the light of a light emitting element (13f) corresponding to the first irradiation spot (S1f) overlapping with a predetermined region (80) is reduced, and controls the second lamp unit (20) so that an amount of the light of a light emitting element (23) corresponding to the second irradiation spot (S2) overlapping with the predetermined region (80) is reduced or becomes 0, and light is emitted from the light emitting element (23) corresponding to the second irradiation spot (S2) overlapping with the first irradiation spot (S1f) and not overlapping with the predetermined region (80).

Headlamp and headlamp system for a motor vehicle
A headlamp (10) for a motor vehicle has a first projection device (12) for illuminating a wide surface (18) and a second projection device (14) laterally offset from the first projection device (12) for illuminating a narrow surface (20) lying within the wide surface (18). Intensity profiles (22, 24) of light emitted by the first and second projection devices (12, 14) are matched in the lateral direction such that, in at least one lateral peripheral region of the narrow surface (20), a gradual transition to the intensity in the wide surface (18) outside the narrow surface (2) and a substantially constant intensity between the lateral peripheral regions of the narrow surface (20) within the narrow surface (20) occur. Intensity profiles (22, 24) of the projection devices (12, 14) are designed for a shorter distance than a projection distance designated for the wide surface (18) and the narrow surface (20).

PRIMARY OPTICAL STRUCTURE, HIGH-BEAM LIGHTING DEVICE, ANTI-GLARE HIGH-BEAM LAMP AND VEHICLE
Disclosed are a primary optical structure, a high-beam lighting device, and an anti-glare high-beam light. The primary optical structure comprises a reflection unit and a shading structure located in front for blocking part of the reflected light from the reflection unit. The primary optical structure is configured for use in a left vehicle lamp or a right vehicle lamp, where the shading structure is arranged at a left side portion or a right side portion of the lamp, respectively. The light blocked by the shading structure and the light that is not blocked are bounded by a right side edge or a left side edge respectively, and an upper side edge of the shading structure. In a vehicle lamp, the primary optical structure can form a high-beam profile having a dark area to prevent glare, such that the dark area formed has an adjustable width and position, improving driving safety.
