The HWT analyzed literature and expert knowledge to identify glare causes, performance negative effects, and improvable requirements for ADB/AFS systems. Key issues include wet road conditions, external objects obstructing sensors, soiled headlamps, and insufficient dynamic masking accuracy. Recommendations include improving headlamp cleaning enforcement, enhancing vehicle detection requirements, introducing motorway ADB usage, implementing adaptive cut-off lines, and providing manual override instructions.
Adaptive Driving Beam: A main beam of an AFS that adapts its beam pattern to the presence of oncoming and preceding vehicles in order to improve the long-range visibility for the driver without causing discomfort, distraction or glare to other road users.
Adaptive Front-lighting System: A lighting system providing beams with differing characteristics for automatic adaptation to varying conditions of use of the dipped-beam (passing-beam) and, if it applies, the main-beam (driving-beam)
Homework Team: A group of experts tasked with providing input for consideration by their parent group in a future meeting.
