An apparatus and method for controlling a headlight. The apparatus has a first light sensor at a first portion of a vehicle and a system controller. The system controller is operatively coupled to the first light sensor and configured to adjust a state of the headlight based at least in part on a first light detection notification that indicates whether light has been received by the first light sensor and a first identifying signal notification that indicates whether received light is modulated and if modulated the presence of one or more identifying signals.
