Glare-Free High beam uses a windshield-mounted camera to detect the headlights or taillights of bicycles and automobiles up to 800 meters away at night. It also uses specially designed headlights to block light that could otherwise temporarily blind other motorists or cyclists.
Driving with high-beam headlights makes it easier for drivers to spot road hazards earlier. Additionally, research has demonstrated that automated high-beam headlights are activated up to ten times more frequently than manual high-beam headlights.
The Global glare-free high beam technology market accounted for $XX Billion in 2022 and is anticipated to reach $XX Billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of XX% from 2023 to 2030.
New glare-free high beam technology developed by Ford enables motorists to fully utilize the capabilities of their headlights without affecting vehicles approaching from behind.
A camera mounted to the windscreen detects the headlights and rear lights of other vehicles on the road, including cyclists, up to 800 meters away with the headlight technology. After that, the headlight system adjusts the angle of the light so that it doesn’t temporarily blind other people on the road.
The technology, which is compatible with Ford’s adaptive LED headlights and auto high beam system, was developed by a global team of engineers from Ford and partners from suppliers.
The speed, ambient light, steering angle, distance from the vehicle in front, and windscreen wiper activation all play a role in this system’s adjustment of the headlight beam angle and intensity.
The new Galaxy and S-Max now offer glare-free high beam. The technology will also be available on the Edge SUV, which was just unveiled. According to Ford of Europe research engineer Michael Koherr: We discovered that some drivers do not use high beams at all because they are so concerned about dazzling other road users.
Without causing any distraction to other road users, Ford’s glare-free high beam technology gently transitions between settings to help the driver’s eyes adjust to changing amounts of light faster and alleviate that stress for drivers.
Portage is likewise during the time spent creating lighting innovation that further develops perceivability at traffic circles, as well as at pause and offer way hints.
In its most recent laser headlights, Audi uses a system that is similar to this one; however, Ford’s version may introduce the technology to segments of automobiles that are priced lower.
