A procedure is provided for actuating at least one main headlamp of a vehicle. The vehicle includes a detection device, and a light control for the automatic actuation of the main headlamp. The main headlamp illuminates an outer area of the area ahead of the vehicle in a first light intensity, and a core area of the area ahead of the vehicle at least partially enclosed by the outer area with a higher second light intensity. The core area is adjusted by the light control in terms of dimension and/or position. In order to improve the visual perceptibility to a vehicle driver of the area ahead of the vehicle, the core area is adjusted in relation to the outer area, and the outer area is adjusted by the light control in such a way depending on the input signal of the light control in terms of dimension and/or position that the vehicle's road and peripheral surroundings) bordering the road in the area ahead of the vehicle are illuminated by the outer area.

A nighttime delivery system is configured to provide delivery of packages during night hours, in low or no-light conditions using a multi-mode autonomous and remotely controllable delivery robot. The system involves the use of a baseline lighting system onboard the robot chassis, with variable light intensity from single flash and floodlighting, to thermal imaging using infrared cameras. The lighting system changes according to various environmental factors, and may utilize multi-mode lighting techniques to capture single-shot images with a flash light source to aid in the robot's perception when the vehicle is unable to navigate using infrared (IR) images.
