Abstract:
A system for adjusting a position of one or more exterior vehicle lights includes an accelerometer providing data indicating changes in vehicle pitch; a vehicle-mounted camera providing additional data indicating changes in vehicle pitch; and a control unit receiving the data from both the accelerometer and the vehicle-mounted camera, processing the data, and communicating a command to a vehicle light leveling actuator based on data from the accelerometer and the vehicle-mounted camera.
