One of the latest automated technologies making its way into luxury cars are the
automatic high beam lights that turn themselves on and off as other cars approach you.
Ford launched Ford Co-Pilot360, a suite of standard advanced driver - assist technologies that includes automatic emergency braking with pedestrian detection, blind spot information system, lane keeping system, rear backup camera and
auto high beam lighting.
Illuminating the road for a distance of nearly 500 meters (1,640 ft), the laser high - beam light has approximately twice the lighting range and three times the luminosity of
LED high beam lights.
There are also several advanced safety - tech features available here, including Lane Departure Alert, which sounds a buzzer if the driver wanders out of a marked lane and both adaptive lighting and an
intelligent high beam lighting system.
It's also the vehicle where Volvo tries to reclaim the high ground on safety from Audi - BMW - Mercedes — German automakers with adaptive cruise control and steering assist,
active high beam lighting that blanks the area pointing at oncoming cars, low - speed car and pedestrian detection with warnings and auto - braking, even a pedestrian airbag in front, like a cow - catcher on a train only gentler.
Also
the high beam light doesn't light up on the dash when its in high beam mode.
It will be equipped with automatic
high beam lights, lane departure warning system
All models now come standard with pre-collision braking, lane departure warning, adaptive cruise control, and automatic
high beam lights.
The low beam light is emitted from the two upper reflectors,
the high beam light from the two lower reflectors.
This system detects oncoming light sources to automatically engage
the high beam lights in dark areas and then dip the high beam lights to avoid dazzling oncoming traffic.
The package includes a rearview camera, lane departure warnings and corrective steering assistance, dynamic radar cruise control, pre-collision alerts with pedestrian detection, and automatic
high beam lights.
Local speed limit info helps you manage unfamiliar territory, and automatic
high beams light up even the darkest roads.
A Dynamic Light Assist system optionally masks the vehicle's
high beam lighting, making for brilliant illumination without dazzling on - coming traffic.
For example, the lamps can offer additional illumination to the side of the road in both urban and rural areas, while
the high beam lights have greater intensity at motorway speeds, without dazzling oncoming drivers.
Furthermore, the IS now comes with Lexus Safety System Plus, which includes a pre-collision system, lane departure alert with steering assist, automatic
high beam lights, and radar cruise control.
The light sources for low and
high beam light are LED units positioned on a horizontal bar at its centre, feeding their light into the reflectors in front.
The SL trim takes this even further with 18 - inch wheels being the norm, in addition to other amenities like automatic
high beam lights, a leather upholstery coating, a navigation and surround - view camera system and a NissanConnect emergency system for serious incidents.
Also many people are shocked to learn that despite sitting higher than other vehicles, commercial vehicle drivers are still highly effected negatively by fog lights and
high beam lights.
It's ok to quickly flash your high beams to alert them, but don't turn
your high beam lights on out of spite.
The headlight, taillights, stop lights, and
high beam lights must be replaced if they are not working properly.
Controlling
your high beam lights is one thing you must learn well.
