    摘要: A control system for controlling an image array sensor and controlling communication between the image array sensor and a microcontroller by way of a serial communication interface. The control system is able to efficiently control various aspects of the image array sensor such as windowing, mode of operation, sensitivity as well as other parameters in order to reduce the data throughput. An important aspect of the invention relates to the fact that the control circuit can be rather easily and efficiently configured in CMOS with rerlatively few output pins which enables the control circuit to be rather easily and efficiently intergrated with CMOS based image array sensors and even the microcontroller to reduce the part count and thus, the overall cost of the system.

    摘要: A method for adjusting an automated headlight system of a motor vehicle, the headlight system having headlights for generating a low beam and a control device for adjusting a lower cut-off line of the low beam, involves calculating an elevation gradient from an extract from a digital elevation model, determining, from the elevation gradient, two turning points which are nearest ahead, determining and characterizing a mean path position on the basis of the turning points, and adjusting the lower cut-off line to a central point of the mean path position at least when the first turning point is reached.

    摘要: Method for controlling a lighting system with the lighting system including a plurality of light sources, wherein each light source is capable of emitting an elementary light beam with the vertical angular aperture of which is less than 1°. The method includes detecting a target object, determining a relative distance between a given point of the host vehicle sensor system and a detected point of the target object and determining a gradient of the road on which the target object is located, determining a lower angle and an upper angle between a given point of the host vehicle lighting system and a high cut-off point and a low cut-off point, controlling the light sources of the host vehicle lighting system in order to emit a pixelated light beam of the driving beam type in order to generate a dark zone extending substantially between the high and low cut-off points.

    摘要: In a headlight optical-axis control device 10, a controller 15 is configured to: calculate vehicle angles indicating tilt angles of a vehicle relative to a road surface, on the basis of ratios, each being a ratio of a difference between a reference acceleration in a longitudinal direction and a signal indicating an acceleration in the longitudinal direction detected during traveling of the vehicle, to a difference between a reference acceleration in a perpendicular direction and a signal indicating an acceleration in the perpendicular direction detected during traveling of the vehicle by an acceleration sensor 2; calculate a plot of the calculated vehicle angles thereby to derive a vehicle angle corresponding to a case where a change of the acceleration in the longitudinal direction is zero; and generate a signal for controlling the optical axes of headlights 5L and 5R on the basis of the derived vehicle angle.
