VEHICLE LAMP
A headlamp includes a high beam lamp unit configured to form a high beam light distribution pattern, a cornering lamp configured to form a side light distribution pattern, and a lamp control unit configured to control the high beam lamp unit and the cornering lamp so as to adjust the high beam light distribution pattern and the side light distribution pattern. At least one of the high beam light distribution pattern and the side light distribution pattern includes a first region including a target object and a second region other than the first region. When an external sensor detects the target object, the lamp control unit adjusts the high beam light distribution pattern and the side light distribution pattern so that at least the second region is irradiated with light.

Method for eliminating glare from objects by means of a headlamp system of a motor vehicle
A method for eliminating glare from objects using a headlamp system of a motor vehicle involves determining the positions of at least two objects reflecting from a headlamp of the headlamp system in a camera image produced by a camera of the headlamp system pointing at the area in front of the motor vehicle. The light emitted by the headlamp is dimmed in sections and the area in front is illuminated in such a way that the at least two objects and one region of the area in front, which is represented in the camera image by a connecting image section that connects the at least two objects to one another, are illuminated with reduced light intensity, so that less light is reflected back.

AUTOMOTIVE LAMP SYSTEM
A controller pulse width modulation (PWM) controls multiple light-emitting pixels arranged in an array that form a variable light distribution lamp. A common counter is provided in common for the multiple light-emitting pixels, and generates a common count value having a ramp waveform. A signal processing unit generates multiple duty cycle instruction values for specifying the duty cycles of the multiple light-emitting pixels according to a light distribution instruction. Furthermore, the signal processing unit stores multiple offset values that correspond to the multiple light-emitting pixels, generates an individual count value for each light-emitting pixel by adding the corresponding offset value to the common count value, and generates individual PWM signals pwml through pwmn that correspond to results of comparison between the individual count values and the corresponding duty cycle instruction values.
