The invention relates to the field of vehicle technologies, and aims to solve a technical problem that when light control for avoidance of a vehicle is improper, traveling safety of the present vehicle, traveling safety of vehicles ahead for which light is controlled for avoidance, and/or safety, walking experience, etc. of the pedestrians for whom light is controlled for avoidance are/is affected to some degree. To solve the technical problem, embodiments of the invention provide a vehicle control method and apparatus, a control apparatus, a vehicle-mounted device, a vehicle, and a computer-readable storage medium. The control method includes: detecting target objects in front of a vehicle; determining whether the target objects are on a traveling path of the vehicle; and performing light control for avoidance for the target objects based on a determination result in a predetermined manner. With this setting, a strategy of light control for avoidance for a target object can be made by learning a traveling path of the target object, such that impact on traveling safety of the present vehicle, traveling safety of vehicles ahead for which light is controlled for avoidance, and/or safety, walking experience, etc. of the pedestrians for whom light is controlled for avoidance are/is kept as little as possible.

A headlight system for a banking vehicle is provided. The headlight system includes a plurality of optical assemblies being arranged about an optical horizon and an optical vertical axis. Each of the plurality of optical assemblies includes an illumination source and an optical element. Each of the illumination sources is configured to direct light toward a corresponding one of the optical elements to produce an illumination region. The illumination regions combine to form an illumination pattern that includes at least one illumination region that is radial and is positioned relative an optical origin. The intersection between the optical horizon and the optical vertical axis defines the optical origin.
