Abstract
A vehicle lamp apparatus has an adaptive driving beam lamp unit, and a controller. The adaptive driving beam lamp unit contains a plurality of individually controllable pixels, and is structured to emit a lamp beam with a light distribution that corresponds to states of the pixels. The controller is structured to control the light distribution of the adaptive driving beam lamp unit. The vehicle lamp apparatus can form an aiming light distribution in an aiming mode. The aiming light distribution contains a cross pattern whose cross point falls on a position that corresponds to an elbow point of a low-beam light distribution.
