Method for controlling a motor vehicle lighting system
12134344 · 2024-11-05 · ·

A method for controlling a lighting system of a host motor vehicle with a plurality of selectively controllable elementary light sources, each able to emit an elementary light beam with the vertical angular opening of which is less than 1. The method includes detecting a target object by a sensor system. Determining a vertical angle between a given point of the sensor system of the host vehicle and a detected point of the target object. Determining, from the vertical angle, a lower angle and an upper angle between a given point of the lighting system and, respectively, an upper cut-off and a lower cut-off intended to together vertically border the target object. Controlling the elementary light sources to emit a pixelated road light beam, as a function of the lower and upper angles, to generate, in the light beam, a dark area extending substantially between the upper and lower cut-offs.

LAMP FITTING, AND VEHICULAR HEADLAMP

A vehicular headlamp (1) serving as a lamp fitting includes: a board (40) on which a first light source (41) and a second light source (42) are mounted; a heat sink (20); and a reflector unit (50) that presses the board (40) against the heat sink (20) and reflects a part of light emitted from the first light source (41) and the second light source (42), in which the board (40) has recesses (45) which are recessed portions of side surfaces (40sf) facing each other, the first light source (41) and the second light source (42) are positioned at inner positions with respect to a bottom portion (45B) of each of the recesses (45), and the reflector unit (50) presses parts of the board (40) that are positioned at outer positions with respect to the bottom portion (45B) of each of the recesses (45).
