Automatic Vehicle Beam Controller

Abstract

Road accidents are a serious cause of concern and glare from headlamps of vehicles during night time create havoc for the drivers making driving really an uphill task and due to the undesirable situation, drivers meet with accidents. It’s a very hectic job for the drivers to manually control the beam of the headlamps during night from time to time when an oncoming vehicle is located within 150 meters of the other vehicle. So, it’s high time when a safety control unit should be installed in vehicles that can automatically dim the headlamps by detecting their intensity which, otherwise, might cause a serious trouble for the drivers. Our work proposes a cost effective and useful control unit which will automatically detect the excessive glare from headlamps and will give a signal to the oncoming vehicle causing the trouble to dim the lamps. As such, the driver’s unnecessary load will be reduced and driving will become safer and smoother during nights.
