A vehicular headlamp driving control device is provided, wherein the vehicular headlamp driving control device comprises: an AFL function on/off check unit; a headlamp driving controller that reads an AFL function execution initiation message and then controls operations of a left/right driving actuator, an up/down driving actuator, and a beam pattern changing actuator, which have been connected to the headlamp, so as to correspond to a sensing value from a sensor; and an AFL function detailed adjustment controller configured such that the AFL function can be distinguished as belonging to an AFL detailed level of an upper level, a middle level, or a lower level according to AFL detailed distinction particulars, which have been preset in AFL function detailed setting particulars, and controlled accordingly.

The vehicle ECU determines whether the power transmission efficiency is decreasing due to the vehicle moving laterally from the power supply lane at night, and if the power transmission efficiency is decreasing, it illuminates the vehicle in the direction of travel according to the steering operation. Activate AFS, which can automatically change the range of light.

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.

A control device for controlling a host vehicle including: a processing circuitry configured to, when another vehicle traveling in a opposite direction to the host vehicle and having a possibility to collide with the host vehicle is detected in front of the host vehicle, execute an out-of-vehicle notification using a headlight based on a distance between the host vehicle and the another vehicle. When the distance is equal to or smaller than a first threshold and equal to or larger than a second threshold that is smaller than the first threshold, the processing circuitry executes the out-of-vehicle notification, and when the distance is smaller than the second threshold, the processing circuitry does not execute the out-of-vehicle notification or executes the out-of-vehicle notification with a notification intensity lower than that when the distance is equal to or smaller than the first threshold and equal to or larger than the second threshold.

A lamp includes a vehicle position sensing unit for sensing a position of a forward vehicle. The lamp includes a plurality of lamp units for changing beam patterns by opening or closing a portion of a shield having a plate shape, a shield actuating unit actuating the shield to open or close the portion of the shield and an optical axis adjustment unit for changing a direction of irradiation of light by adjusting an optical axis of at least one of the plurality of lamp units. In particular, a control unit forms a shadow zone by controlling at least one of the shield actuating unit and the optical axis adjustment unit according to the sensed position of the forward vehicle.

A light assembly and method for steering a vehicle headlight illumination pattern. In one aspect, a method includes providing a processor programmed to perform the steps of: illuminating a subset of consecutive LEDs in the line including LEDs associated with the first and second edge illumination fields; as the direction of the vehicle wheels changes: (i) fading the LED associated with one of the first and second illumination fields off while simultaneously fading the LED associated with the other of the first and second illumination fields on thereby changing the illumination pattern; and (ii) repeating step (i) so that the illumination pattern tracks the direction of the vehicle wheels.

A vehicle lamp includes a light source that shines a laser beam and a laser scanning unit that has a single or plurality of acousto-optic devices, and the laser scanning unit can control an angle at which a laser beam that is incident on the acousto-optic devices is deflected. The vehicle lamp is strong enough to deal with vibrations and withstands the application to a motor vehicle.

The headlamp control device acquires a result of learning of the recognition sensitivity of the forward vehicle during lighting of the lamp included in the forward camera image of the probe vehicle suitable for each traveling position of the probe vehicle performed using the traveling position of the probe vehicle and the forward camera image of the probe vehicle when the driver of the probe vehicle performs an operation to turn OFF the function of switching the light distribution of the headlamp of the probe vehicle from the lighting state of the high beam to the lighting state of the light shielding high beam, and adjusts the recognition sensitivity of the forward vehicle during lighting of the lamp included in the forward camera image of the own vehicle at each traveling position of the own vehicle based on the obtained result of the learning.

In a vehicle headlamp control apparatus, a light distribution control section controls light distribution of a headlamp based on a detected light control target object ahead of a vehicle and a detected behavior of the vehicle or an expected change thereof. When the behavior is in a first behavior state in which a change in the headlamp irradiation area becomes equal to or less than a predetermined amount or the behavior is expected not to change from the first behavior state, the light distribution control section causes the headlamp to project light in a standard pattern. When the behavior is in a second behavior state in which the change in the headlamp irradiation area exceeds the predetermined amount or the behavior is expected to change to the second behavior state, the light distribution control section causes the headlamp to project light in a pattern different from the standard pattern.
