Mobileye and Visteon Collaborate to Develop Advanced Lighting Control Strategies

One specific application of the combined technologies may include automatically switching between high and low headlight beams.

AMSTERDAM — Mobileye N.V., a technological leader in the area of advanced image sensing and processing technology for automotive applications, has announced an agreement with Visteon, whereby the two companies will jointly develop strategies and technologies that will control tomorrow’s smart headlamp systems.

One specific application of the combined technologies may include automatically switching between high and low headlight beams. Additionally, other more advanced lighting control strategies are expected, which allow the driver better viewing with longer-range capabilities.

The advanced lighting strategies made possible by the two companies would be enabled by camera processing abilities that include vehicle detection, on-coming and preceding light source analysis and range estimations. Together these technologies would define the optimal lighting profile to enable the driver to maximize the viewing range under most conceivable conditions.

Mobileye will utilize its core vision processing capabilities, including lane departure warning systems, vehicle detection, high beam assist and traffic sign recognition, to provide data that will feed the Visteon headlamp system. Most of these Mobileye technologies have already been launched by various automobile manufacturers, including Volvo, BMW and General Motors. The Visteon system will analyze Mobileye’s data and convert it to useful information for its headlamp systems to add higher levels of intelligence and functionality.

"Adding intelligence to lighting systems fits naturally with the current path of optimizing the high beam usage in the current high beam-assist systems introduced by car makers," said Dr. Gideon Stein, chief scientist at Mobileye N.V.

Dr. Rainer Neumann, Visteon’s director, global business development for lighting, added that, "With the additional data that Mobileye can provide, headlight usage can be elevated to a higher functional level, allowing the driver to gain maximum viewing range under most conditions and driving scenarios."

To date, Mobileye’s technology has been launched by BMW 5-Series, 6-Series, 7-Series, Volvo S80, XC70 and V70 models, and Buick Lucerne, Cadillac DTS and STS.

In addition to OEM activities, Mobileye produces a complete off-the-shelf line of products, the Mobileye AWS, (Advance Warning System), which contains features already in OEM production and new customer features to be launched by OEMs in the future.
