Abstract

Systems, methods, and other embodiments described herein relate to vehicle headlight calibration. In one embodiment, a headlight adjustment system includes a headlight positioned in a vehicle with a measuring assembly attached to the headlight. An adjust system is connected to the moving assembly and a moving mechanism. In response to an optical beam of the measuring assembly extending past an articulating reference member of the measuring assembly to an optical receptor of the measuring assembly, the moving mechanism physically alters a configuration of the headlight.
