Abstract:
An asymmetric geometry headlamp for vehicular use is built as a multifaceted three dimensional body which has multiple light emitting devices (LEDs and/or laser emitters) installed on its angled facets, hence forming a multipurpose illumination apparatus within a single assembly which is designed to provide; a low beam with a wide illuminated area covering 2 PiSteradians, a high beam all position and signaling lights. A microprocessor based system runs real time, continuously adaptive control routines for day and night conditions and provides the electric signals necessary for the independent control of the luminous intensity, direction and color spectrum to each facet of the headlamp's LEDs (light emitting diodes) and for the high beam. Multiple photo-sensors, CCD or CMOS video cameras, position encoders and accelerometers provide the feedback signals used in the automation of all lighting functions in a system designed to completely replace the manual actuation of lights on vehicles.
