Vehicle reflection identification
A computer includes a processor and a memory, and the memory stores instructions executable by the processor to determine a value over time derived from a region of sensor data from an optical sensor of a host vehicle; determine that the value over time matches a stored temporal pattern; upon determining that the value over time matches the stored temporal pattern, classify an object at the region as a surface reflecting a signal from an illuminator of an origin vehicle; and actuate a component of the host vehicle based on a classification of the object at the region.
VARIABLE LAMP SYSTEM FOR VEHICLES THAT REDUCES GLARE
A variable lamp system for a vehicle includes one or more sensors to detect an object at a side or a rear of the vehicle, and acquire driving information of the object, a lighting device including one or more lamps, and a controller to control the lighting device and brightness of the one or more lamps of the lighting device based on the driving information.
METHOD FOR OPERATING A LIGHTING DEVICE FOR A VEHICLE, A LIGHTING SYSTEM FOR A VEHICLE, AND VEHICLE
The disclosure relates in general to a method for operating a lighting device for a vehicle, a lighting system for a vehicle, and a vehicle. The lighting device has at least one lighting element, one actuator and one control device. The lighting element has a plurality of controllable segments with associated supply circuits. The control device has at least one control algorithm. A lighting zone produced by the lighting element is adapted on the basis of the control algorithm of the control device in such a way that the lighting zone produced by the lighting element coincides with a desired illumination zone. The control device adapts the lighting zone produced by the lighting element on the basis of a mechanical degree of actuation determined by the control algorithm and/or a virtual degree of actuation determined by the control algorithm.
System for assisting with driving a vehicle
The invention relates to a system for assisting with driving a vehicle, including at least one sensor configured to detect the presence of an object in an environment outside the vehicle, at least one camera configured to acquire images of the environment outside the vehicle and to detect the presence of the object in the environment outside the vehicle. The at least one sensor detects at least one free space in the environment outside the vehicle, the at least one camera, on the basis of the acquired images, detects at least one free space. An electronic control unit configured to select a free space found by the at least one sensor and/or the at least one camera, the electronic control unit activates the display of images in the selected free space so as to indicate a new path to be followed by the vehicle.
Headlamp auto-leveling control system and method thereof
A headlamp auto-leveling system and a method thereof are disclosed. The headlamp auto-leveling system and method adjust the radiation direction of light through a headlamp according to the state of a mobility device and the presence of physical objects in the front and rear sides of the mobility device, thereby reducing or minimizing the effect of a projection image on the surrounding mobility device and enhancing the accuracy of identification of messages through the projection image.
VEHICULAR LAMP
Provided is a vehicular lamp capable of notifying, when a subject vehicle approaches a corner with a blind spot, a pedestrian or other vehicles in the blind spot at the corner of the subject vehicle approaching the corner. In a vehicular lamp which includes an adaptive lamp unit (4L, 4R), an object detection signal acquirer (5, 14) that acquires an object detection signal around a vehicle, and an adaptive controller (6L, 6R) that adjusts an irradiation area and an irradiation light amount of the adaptive lamp unit (4L, 4R) based on the acquired object detection signal, the adaptive lamp unit (4L, 4R) is configured to irradiate a curve mirror (CM, CM1, CM2) detected around the vehicle with light based on an object detection signal of the curve mirror (CM, CM1, CM2).
Method and apparatus for vehicular light fixtures
A lighting device is provided for controlling the photometric distribution of light emitted by two or more LEDs. The lighting device may be integrated with a control system of the vehicle and may be controlled by a remote controller. The lighting device may be capable of being operated in one or more modes of operation based on operating conditions, user input, or both. Operating conditions may include vehicle conditions, environmental conditions, and user conditions. The controller may operate a software application to enable the user to modify, control, or otherwise regulate any mode of operation or other feature of the lighting system.

Intelligent light switching method and system, and related device
This application provides an intelligent light switching method and system, and a related device. One example method includes: The intelligent light switching system obtains an image, where the image comprises lamp source information; calculates an ambient light brightness value corresponding to the image; classifies, based on the lamp source information, a lamp source included in the image to obtain a classification result; and switches to a high beam or a low beam based on the ambient light brightness value corresponding to the image and the classification result.
