Design of The CRONE Automatic Headlight Leveling System
Résumé
Automotive headlights system represents a safety key system when it comes to drive by night. It aims to increase the comfort of the driver by providing a clear visibility in order to anticipate obstacles and follow the right path. One of the main challenges that the lighting system is facing today is its automatic leveling adjustment. Variations of load of the vehicle, its dynamics and the environment are the main sources of disturbance to the leveling system. These disturbances causes variations of vehicle pitch angle and as a result the lighting cut-off level that may glare other road users and affect the driver's visibility range. This paper proposes an innovative automatic leveling system based on an ultrasonic motor which is able to dynamically reject such disturbances on the lighting cut-off level using a robust CRONE controller.
