Excerpts from session reports related to this document GRE | Session 91 | 22-25 Oct 2024

30. The expert from Japan reported on the outcome of their research into standards for automotive lighting in an ageing society (GRE-91-17), which identified the decreased vision of elderly people at night, due to reduced eyesight and increased glare, compared to younger people. As solutions, the expert proposed that a light distribution design should address glare and visibility for elderly drivers and that an evaluation should be conducted on how new headlamp technologies (auto-levelling, adaptive driving beam, headlamp cleaners, etc.) improve visibility and anti-glare performance. The Chair invited TF GP to consider these suggestions.
