Abstract

The project proposed a prototype of an adaptive car headlamps control using image processing. The adaptive headlamps system focuses on the lighting angle control of low beam in the headlamps which its light tracks moved horizontally. The controller in headlamps is based on image processing from a camera mounted on the car. Adaptive headlamps system consists of portable tiny computer of Raspberry Pi, Arduino microcontroller, and two stepper motors for the left and the right headlamps. The system was implemented on the headlamps of a Toyota Avanza car. The adaptive headlamps system could detect most types of cars ahead. It could decrease a ‘glare’ effect and increase the driver sight based on survey taken from the driver and the driver of opposite car. The system still couldn’t detect the opposite car with high intensity of light from braking lamps, as well as the light from the opposite front lamps.
