Abstract: Vehicle systems and methods are provided for visually alerting a vehicle operator to a potential obstacle in the vicinity of a vehicle using an external lighting system associated with the vehicle. An exemplary method involves identifying an analysis portion of image data captured for a region external to the vehicle based at least in part on current status information associated with the vehicle, identifying an obstacle within the analysis portion of the image data based at least in part on ranging data for the analysis portion, and in response to identifying the obstacle, automatically adjusting an illumination axis associated with a lighting system to illuminate the obstacle, determining a current value for a contrast ratio associated with the obstacle relative to the analysis portion of the image data, and automatically adjusting one or more characteristics of the lighting system based at least in part on the current value.
