Adaptive Cars Headlamps System with Image Processing and Lighting Angle Control

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.
