Proposal to:

• Align the requirements in UN R48 with updated requirements in UN R149 (e.g., require the communication form to indicate whether the total objective luminous flux of one or more light source(s) or light source module(s) for a dipped beam exceeds 2,000 lumens)

Allow the projection of a pattern for predicted trajectory
• Amend failure detection and signalisation requirements to reflect technological progress in multiple light sources.

Proposal to introduce provisions to enable the approval of reversing light projections.

In order to harmonise requirements among different installation Regulations, the SLR Officers offered to draft a proposal for Reg. 48 to clarify that devices not allowed in the Regulation are prohibited (in line with Par. 5.17. of Reg. 53).

Proposal is to define common rules while leaving the choice to
countries to adopt them or not. These rules must in particular make it possible to
automatically cut off the work lamps in circulation to avoid glare and make traffic
safer

TF AVSR Comments on document ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRE/2023/9/Rev.3

Proposal to clarify that only light-signalling devices may incorporate an illuminated logo.

Proposal to require a minimum of 50% of the apparent surface of the rear direction-indicator lamps (category 2a or 2b) to be more than 25mm from the stop lamp.

Proposal prepared by the experts from the Task Force on Automated Vehicle Signalling Requirements (TF AVSR). Proposal aim to introduce vehicles with a driving system, which controls its operation or may be operated by driver support features or automated driving features or by an Automated Driving System (ADS).

Proposal aims to amend failure detection and signalisation requirements to reflect technological progress in multiple light sources. This amendment proposes to include in UN Regulation No. 149 different provisions allowing that a failure signal is only triggered when a significant change in the beam is detected and ensuring that the most suitable failure provision can be applied. Proposal for a Supplement to the 06, 07, 08 and 09 series of amendments to UN Regulation No. 48

Proposal is to define common rules while leaving the choice to countries to adopt them or not. These rules must in particular make it possible to automatically cut off the work lamps in circulation to avoid glare and make traffic safer.

Proposal with the aim to allow the projection of a pattern for predicted trajectory.

Proposal to introduce provisions for “work lamps”.

Updated proposal to adapt UN R48 for application to ADS vehicles.

Proposal to introduce the provisions to enable the use of light-signalling in form of projection of patterns on the road for other road users through new light-signalling functions “Direction indicator projection” and “Reversing projection”.

Interpretation question on the provision “With the exception of retro-reflectors, a lamp even bearing an approval mark is deemed not to be present when it cannot be made to operate by the sole installation of a light source and/or a fuse.”

Revised proposal to avoid exceeding the aggregate maximum intensity of the main-beam headlamps (430,000 cd) by removing the double requirement for a sum of reference marks and a sum of maximum luminous intensities which risks generating large rounding errors when the maximum luminous intensities are summed up.

Proposal from the AVSR task force to amend its earlier document.

LUPC task force mandate to review the requirements of the current suite of lamps under parked conditions and to develop, where necessary, proposals to address the energy indicator and lamp test mode under UN R48.

Changes pursuant to the 29 November 2023 FADS informal group session updated with additional comments.

Proposal from the Autonomous Vehicles Signalling Reguirements (AVSR) task force to update the text of UN R48 to enable application to vehicles equipped with an Automated Driving System (ADS).

Proposal to align the requirements in UN R48 with updated requirements in UN R149 (UN R48 currently only refers to a light source or light-emitting diode (LED) module(s) for dipped beam (paragraph 6.2.9.) and to light sources of the lighting units for an adaptive front-lighting system (AFS) (paragraph 6.22.9.) while the latest updates to the 01 series of UN R149 requires the communication form to indicate whether the total objective luminous flux of one or more light source(s) or light source module(s) for a dipped beam exceeds 2,000 lumens). This proposal replaces the term “LED module” with “Light source module” and modifies wording to adapt to the introduction of “matched pair” requirements for headlamps and AFS.
