Systems and methods to proactively adapt image sensor settings of an occupant monitoring system to accommodate ambient lighting changes are provided. The system may track current ambient light, track the driver, and predict upcoming changing lighting conditions. Sensors are used to predict when the ambient light will change and preemptively adjust to prevent dark or washout images. The sensor adjustment may be timed so that the adjustment is made just in time or concurrently with the change in ambient light conditions. The system may predict when the light on the occupant's face will change and proactively readjust the settings of the sensor to accommodate the changed lighting conditions.

Disclosed herein is a vehicle headlight for improving visibility during operation. In the vehicle headlight, a filtering film capable of preventing glare and reducing a discomfort glare phenomenon by controlling scotopic vision (S)/photopic vision (P) ratio in such a manner as to selectively absorb/block blue light in light emitted from an LED module is adhered, thereby improving visibility during operation.

A motor vehicle cabin sensing system is disclosed. The system comprises an image sensor, an illumination source and an illumination lens array. The image sensor is operable to capture one or more images, the image sensor having a field of view of a motor vehicle cabin. Preferably, the image sensor is operable to capture images in a near infrared wavelength. The illumination source is operable to transmit light rays towards the motor vehicle cabin. The illumination lens array is operable to diffuse the light rays emitting from the illumination source to one or more photoreceptor cells of a retina such that a radiant intensity of a red glow effect detected by the retina is a reduction of 10 to 100 times or 0% to 50% of a radiant intensity of the illumination source. A method is also disclosed.

A method and an arrangement for light adaptation of the eyes of a driver of a vehicle when exiting a tunnel. The method and arrangement determines a tunnel exit position and changes a light source luminous flux of at least one light source in the vehicle as the vehicle approaches the tunnel exit position in response to the determination of the tunnel exit position.
