BeamAtic, intelligent high beams in your car

Since we are not yet used to the new activation systems for automatic high beams, we have just discovered that in Japan things have already gone one step further.

Apparently, Ichikoh Industries Ltd has just surprised half the planet with an intelligent headlight system that will allow drivers to use the high beams while “dodging” other vehicles, that is, without dazzling other road users, as you can see in the header image.

But the credit does not belong entirely to this Japanese company, since for once it must be noted that this technology was developed by Valeo S.A, through a system that controls the light beam according to the cars ahead of us as well as those approaching us, in order to avoid a possible case of dazzling.

This system will be offered to manufacturers in HID, xenon, and LED versions, the second system being without doubt the one that delivers the best results, thanks to the ease of controlling the shape and reach of the light beam.

Even so, apparently Ichikoh Industries will be in charge of selling this technology, starting its commercialisation this very month of September.
