ADAPTIVE HEADLIGHTS

-

Adaptive headlights use steering wheel angle sensors to anticipate an approachin­g curve in the road and bend their beam to peer around corners. More recent technology allows drivers to leave their high-beam on permanentl­y without dazzling oncoming drivers. Cameras scan the road ahead and shut down or dim individual LEDs so that the approachin­g traffic is shaded but the surroundin­gs stay brightly illuminate­d.
