Advanced Headlight System: 3D High Beam

Abstract

In this paper, a new concept for an advanced headlight system is presented. The weather or the road geometry cause a reduced illumination range or glare which is critical for driver safety. An optimal headlamp system should be able to adapt on a multitude of parameters from the ego vehicle and the environment to ensure a sufficient illumination of the street without glaring other road users. A perfect road illumination without providing glare for other traffic participants and giving the maximum additional information about the environment to the driver is still a hard task for these systems. The improvement of such systems will be achieved only with the combination of lane data and a list of detected objects provided from the camera system with the PSD format data of the GPS (Global PS) and the navigation system. The most part of the technology which is needed for the realization of an optimal adaptive system is still available.
