摘要:
A vehicle headlamp system having a headlamp module and a processor. The headlamp module may include a light source and a reflector. The light source may include a plurality of light emitters which are individually controllable by the processor. The reflector may include a plurality of facets for reflecting the light received from the light source. The headlamp module is capable of switching between high and low beam light without mechanically movable components.

Methods and systems for dynamic lighting systems are disclosed. The dynamic lighting system invented has minimal mechanical wear and is reacting quickly to fast changes by using magnetic power transmission moving optical elements between light sources, preferably types of LEDs or OLEDS, and objects to be illuminated. Movements of the optical elements can be either linear in up to three dimensions, tilted or on spherical tracks. Positions of the optical elements can be progressively taken and appointed.

An apparatus controls a swivel angle of on-vehicle headlights, the swivel angle of the lights being changeable in a lateral direction of the vehicle. A target swivel angle of the headlights is determined based on, for example, load map data of the road ahead the vehicle, and a control start point is determined based on the current position information and the road map data. The swivel angle is controlled to the target swivel angle in response to a state where the current position of the vehicle has reached the control start point. Running road shape-related information and a curvature direction of the road ahead are acquired. A control of the swivel angle toward the target swivel angle is prohibited when a direction of the target swivel angle determined is inconsistent with the curvature direction of the road, even in a case where the vehicle has reached the control start point.

摘要:
A headlight control apparatus and method controls an irradiation direction of a headlight. This apparatus uses a navigation-based swivel angle calculated based upon the shape of a road in a navigation-based control period, and a steering-based swivel angle calculated based upon a steering angle in a steering-based control period. When the control period changes from the navigation-based control period to the steering-based control period, this apparatus uses a value between the navigation-based swivel angle and the steering-based swivel angle as a present control swivel angle for controlling the irradiation direction of the headlight.
摘要:
An automatic turning headlight structure includes a headlight structure, a running gear and a server, the headlight structure being mounted through a rotatable main shaft at the front side of the car. The server is placed inside the headlight structure, and connected by a shaft with the main shaft. The server receives a signal to turn and to transmit a force to the shaft to drive the main shaft to make the headlight turn left or right, following the movement of the steering wheel.

A head lamp device for a vehicle capable of moving a lighting region of a head lamp in front of the vehicle in rightward and leftward directions. This device comprises steering angle detecting means for detecting a steering angle; displacement quantity setting means for setting a quantity of displacement of the lighting region based on the steering angle detected by the steering angle detecting means; vehicle speed detecting means for detecting a vehicle speed; maximum displacement quantity setting means for setting a maximum quantity of displacement of the lighting region based on the vehicle speed detected by the vehicle speed detecting means; and control means for controlling displacement of the lighting region in accordance with the quantity of displacement set by the displacement quantity setting means when the quantity of displacement is less than the maximum quantity of displacement set by the maximum displacement quantity setting means, and controlling displacement of the lighting region in accordance with the maximum quantity of displacement when the quantity of displacement is more than the maximum quantity of displacement.
摘要:
In order to determine the direction and degree of bank of a motorcycle, a flywheel or other weight balanced at its center of mass is mounted on the motorcycle so that it is free to rotate about an axis parallel to the longitudinal axis of the motorcycle. As the vehicle banks, the flywheel will tend to maintain its position, and the angle of bank can be ascertained by measuring the direction and degree of rotation between the plane of the motorcycle and the flywheel. Measurement of flywheel rotation is obtained by means of an electromagnetic or electro-optical scanner. This device may be used to control headlight beam rotation about the beam axis, thereby keeping the horizontal cutoff of the rectangular beam cross-section parallel to the horizon at all times. Because of friction and vibration, however, the flywheel position may drift relative to the horizon, rendering the angle measurement inaccurate. Therefore it is necessary for the operator to correct for flywheel drift periodically by stopping flywheel rotation when the vehicle is upright or normal to the road surface. This driver input also resets the headlight beam to its normal position. For daytime use, the headlight beam may be locked in its normal position.

As the vehicle banks, the flywheel will tend to maintain its position, and the angle of bank can be ascertained by measuring the direction and degree of rotation between the plane of the motorcycle and the flywheel. Measurement of flywheel rotation is obtained by means of an electromagnetic or electro-optical scanner. Because of friction and vibration, however, the flywheel position will drift relative to the horizon, rendering the angle measurement inaccurate. Therefore it is necessary to correct for flywheel drift periodically whenever the vehicle is upright or normal to the road surface. The zero bank angle, or upright position, for the motorcycle is determined by one or more distance sensors, or by detecting a zero steering angle, using a suitable rotary switch between the frame and the fork assembly.
