Disclosed are an automatic leveling system and a method for a headlamp, which accurately detects whether a road is uphill or downhill, and a lateral gradient condition of the road. The system and method also automatically adjust a light radiating direction through the headlamp according to the road. Further, a sensor capable of scanning a road surface and a lamp module radiating light are integrated with each other, so a light irradiation position is accurately and rapidly adjusted according to a road condition, thus improving the accuracy and the reliability of the light irradiation position. Further, as the light irradiation position of a headlamp is adjusted by comparing image capturing information obtained through an image capturing device with sensing information obtained through a laser sensor, the deterioration of the aiming accuracy due to the mounting state of a camera is prevented.

Automatic leveling system and method for a headlamp

A vehicle lamp includes a light source unit including a plurality of light emitting units for forming different beam patterns, and an optical unit disposed in front of the light source unit for transmitting light generated from the light source unit to form a predetermined beam pattern. The plurality of light emitting units includes a first light emitting unit for forming a first beam pattern and a second light emitting unit disposed around the first light emitting unit for forming a second beam pattern different from the first beam pattern.

Lamp for vehicle

A lamp includes a vehicle position sensing unit for sensing a position of a forward vehicle. The lamp includes a plurality of lamp units for changing beam patterns by opening or closing a portion of a shield having a plate shape, a shield actuating unit actuating the shield to open or close the portion of the shield and an optical axis adjustment unit for changing a direction of irradiation of light by adjusting an optical axis of at least one of the plurality of lamp units. In particular, a control unit forms a shadow zone by controlling at least one of the shield actuating unit and the optical axis adjustment unit according to the sensed position of the forward vehicle.

Lamp for vehicle and controlling method thereof

Disclosed herein is an apparatus and a method for controlling a headlamp, and more particularly, an apparatus and a method for controlling a headlamp to perform a flashing function more efficiently while a vehicle is being driven. The apparatus includes, a rotating shield including a first shield protrusion portion which includes a plurality of protrusions formed in a direction of a rotation axis of a rotatable body and a second shield protrusion portion disposed on a side of the first shield protrusion portion; a sensor detecting a light distribution pattern of a vehicle based on a rotation angle of the rotating shield; and a rotating unit rotating the rotating shield at a predetermined angle toward the first or second shield protrusion portion, which forms the detected light distribution pattern, in order to perform a flashing function.

Apparatus and method for controlling headlamp

A headlamp apparatus for a vehicle which produces a glare-free high beam may include a light source including a plurality of chips which may be arranged in line, and each of which may be separately turned on or off, a condenser lens disposed in front of the light source, and configured to improve light efficiency by condensing light emitted from the light source, a beam pattern conversion lens disposed in front of the condenser lens and configured to increase a size of a beam pattern of the light source in a vertical direction, and an optical refractive lens disposed in front of the beam pattern conversion lens, the optical refractive lens projecting the light that has passed through the beam pattern conversion lens onto a road by imaging the light onto a screen.

Headlamp for vehicle which produces glare-free high beam

An apparatus and a method for controlling a head lamp of a vehicle are disclosed. The apparatus includes one or more processors configured to: determine whether at least one of a low beam and a high beam is turned on; select at least one of a plurality of pieces of control information for controlling an illumination pattern according to the determination result; and control the illumination pattern according to the selected control information.

Apparatus and method for controlling head lamp of vehicle

Provided are an automotive headlamp control apparatus and method which are employed to control an illumination pattern of a headlamp unit by rotating the headlamp unit and/or adjusting a light blocking region of the headlamp unit based on the position of a front vehicle located ahead in a driving direction. The automotive headlamp control apparatus includes an image capture unit capturing an image of an area ahead in a driving direction, a position determination unit determining a position of a front vehicle based on the captured image, a headlamp unit projecting light according to an illumination pattern formed by blocking part of light emitted from a light source, and a control unit controlling the illumination pattern of the headlamp unit by rotating the headlamp unit and/or adjusting a light blocking region of the headlamp unit based on the determined position of the front vehicle.

Automotive headlamp control apparatus and method

A head lamp structure of the vehicle may include a reflector including a light source, and a shield part rotatably provided at a front of the reflector and including a shield protrusion formed at an outer peripheral surface thereof and having a cutting surface.
