AUTOMATIC HEAD LIGHT ALIGNMENT

SYSTEM
 ABSTRACT
• As for Indian road transport scenario is concerned, accidents are becoming a day to day
cause an attempt has been made in this project to reduce such mishaps.
• In our project of “AUTOMATIC HEAD LAMP ALIGNMENT SYSTEM” having the
following operation occurs automatically in the vehicle. They are,
• Automatic head light left and right alignment depends upon the vehicle moves in left and
right direction
• The head light in steady position for the vehicle in normal condition.

 INTRODUCTION
• A headlamp is a lamp, usually attached to the front of a vehicle such as a car, with the
purpose of illuminating the road ahead during periods of low visibility, such as darkness or
precipitation.
• Head light is the main part of an every automobile
• There is a focus problem while turn in hair pin bends, in order to rectify this problem we
made a project on head light focal adjustment depend on steering angle.
• As for Indian road transport scenario is concerned, accidents are becoming a day to day cause an
attempt has been made in this project to reduce such mishaps.

• Automatic head light left and right alignment depends upon the vehicle moving direction.

• The head light in steady position for the vehicle in normal condition .

Headlights for Mr. Nanaware (IJRITCC | light systems do not provide illumination in the right direction
Automobiles J.D March 2015) on curve roads. Due to this constrain, a need to understand an
alternative technology solution. The aim is to improve visibility
for driver and so achieve a significant increase in safety and
driving comfort. This calls for a flexible front light for
automobiles to illuminate road ahead in the night at corner.

2. Programmable Robert 2014 The primary goal of an automotive headlight is to improve

Automotive Tamburo1 , safety in low light and poor weather conditions. But, despite
Headlights Eriko decades of innovation on light sources, more than half of
Nurvitadhi2 accidents occur at night even with less traffic on the road.
Recent developments in adaptive lighting have addressed some
limitations of standard headlights.

of an Adaptive and Anwar B. (ICCCE aims to design and build a prototype of steerable headlights by adapting
Headlamp Abu Bakar 2010), a conventional static headlamp with a very close eye on cost and
Systems 11-13 reliability. Components that are easily available in the market and
May suitable for developing a steerable headlight system were tested.
2010, Different kinds of tests were done on critical parts of the system in order
Kuala to determine its accuracy, its response time, and the system impact.
Lumpur, Finally, the results acquired from these various tests will be discussed.
Malaysia Any findings and changes that should be made are discussed and may
be useful for future development.
4. AUTOMATIC Ganesh 2015 Major Road mishaps occur at night on account of curve roads and glare

PROTOTYPE
Sandhya (IJAREC work is to design and build an Adaptive Front Light Control System
FOR VEHICLES Chourasia, E Prototype. From the results, it is concluded that the headlamp swings in

Lect. P. K. distance between subject vehicle and next vehicle. Accuracy, reliability
Warkey and availability of the components were few considerations during the
conceptualization stage.
 PROBLEM STATEMENT
• Design and Develop the model of vehicle which will have the vehicle safety system of automatic
head lamp alignment system for directional head lights which helps for automatic by using LDR.
• Also to fabricate the model of the same which would able to show the characteristics of systems
and working according to need.
 OBJECTIVE
•To provide smooth and safety ride at night.
•To provide safe and automatic headlights on turn.
•To provide the nation with an accident free roads. With Low Cost Automation Project.
•The head lamp aligns in two directions (Left, right).
•To design and develop the model of showing the system.

•To fabricate the model which will work on this system for the vehicle safety conditions.
 SCOPE OF THIS PROJECT
• A dark night, a sharp bend, and a pedestrian wearing dark clothes hiding in the shadows. If only there
was some way that the headlights could 'see round the corner', like the driver tries to. That’s why we
are making to turn the headlights as the driver steers the vehicle.
• To prevent road accidents on sharp turning at night specially in hilly areas.
• To increase safety at night.
WORKING DIAGRAM
 DESCRIPTION
• These provide improved lighting for cornering. Some automobiles have their headlamps
connected to the steering mechanism so the lights will follow the movement of the front
wheels.
• 1. AT NORMAL CONDITION:-
• The rack and pinion steering is in straight line, so that the head light frame is in straight line.
The head light frame is made up of mild steel pipe materials.
• 2. AT LEFT SIDE TURNING TIME:-
• `The rack and pinion steering turn the left direction, so that the head light frame moves in
the same left side by using hinges mechanism. Head light is drawn supplies from the already
charged 12 voltage lead-acid battery.
• 3. AT RIGHT SIDE TURNING TIME:-
• The rack and pinion steering turn the right direction, so that the head light frame moves in
the same right side by using hinges mechanism.

 ADVANATGES
• To provide smooth and safety ride.
• To provide mind free ride for the motorist.
• To provide the nation with an accident free roads.
• Low Cost Automation Project
• The head lamp aligns in two directions (Left, right).
 APPLICATION
• This system can be used in heavy moving vehicles such as buses and trucks etc.
• Thus it can be useful for the following types of vehicles;
• 1) MARUTI,
• 2) AMBASSADOR,
• 3) FIAT,
• 4) MAHINDRA,
• 5) TATA
