Bringing Intelligent Headlamps to Light Via Simulation

Learn how automotive engineering teams verify the performance of their complex headlamp designs.

Intelligent headlights built on new optics allow dynamic, adaptive lighting on the road.

Once seen as a basic, utilitarian product feature, today’s automotive headlamps are becoming much more innovative - and a critical source of competitive differentiation.

Headlights were once among the most basic features of any car, but modern technology is setting the stage for a new era in headlight design. Intelligent headlamps with dynamic, adaptive smart features will optimize the balance between illuminating the roadway and avoiding glare for oncoming motorists.

Even more important, as cars become increasingly autonomous, smart headlights lay the foundation for all the other autonomous driving features. Without adequate, appropriate lighting in all situations, the safety and correct functioning of other AD sensors is impossible to guarantee.

Unfortunately, road testing for smart and autonomous driving features is incredibly costly and labor-intensive – and can even be dangerous if something goes wrong. Simulation offers a safer path to well-designed systems in all aspects of automotive design, headlamps included.
