Problems solved by technology

[0005] A disadvantage of the known headlight systems, vehicles and methods is that the gaze direction control system outputs a light distribution that is not smooth and follows rapid changes in the gaze
The resulting constantly changing light distribution can be annoying and negatively affect driving safety
In addition, for example when reading traffic signs, which are usually placed higher up, an area can be swept by the light when the line of sight is raised, in which oncoming traffic can be flashed, so that the traffic safety of other road users is influenced by this damaged

Embodiment Construction

[0039] figure 1 A top view of the vehicle 2 is shown.

[0040] The vehicle 2 has a vehicle headlight system 4 . The vehicle headlight system 4 has a number of components that are outlined with dotted lines.

[0041] The vehicle headlight system 4 has two headlights 6 , 8 which are both designed as matrix headlights. The headlights 6 , 8 are therefore designed to output a variable light distribution. Variable Light Distribution Different light distributions can be generated by selectively connecting and disconnecting matrix elements. Some shapes of the headlights can also change other aspects besides the light distribution, such as light power, overall brightness and / or brightness distribution.

[0042] The vehicle headlight system 4 has a front camera 10 . The front camera 10 is oriented in the direction of travel X. The front camera 10 detects the area in front of the vehicle 2 . In some configurations, the front camera 10 is designed as a stereo camera.

Abstract

The invention relates a motor vehicle headlamp system, a motor vehicle, a method for operating a motor vehicle headlamp system, and especially relates to the motor vehicle headlamp system. The vehicle headlamp system with at least one headlamp, wherein the headlamp is designed to emit a variable light distribution, at least one driver monitoring device for detecting the viewing direction of a driver, an environmental monitoring device for monitoring the environment of the motor vehicle and detecting at least one object in the environment of the motor vehicle, a memory connected with the environmental monitoring device for storing information about the objects, and a controller that is connected with the memory and driver monitoring device, which is set up to compare the location of the object with the viewing direction of the driver, wherein the controller is set up to alter the light distribution of the at least one headlamp so as to illuminate the object when the viewing direction of the driver is turned toward the object.

Description

technical field [0001] A vehicle headlight system, a vehicle and a method for operating a vehicle headlight system are described below. The vehicle headlight system has at least one headlight which is designed to output a variable light distribution. In addition, at least one driver monitoring device is provided for detecting the direction of the driver's gaze. Background technique [0002] In particular, it is generally known from vehicle technology to provide several types of headlights, which are oriented in the direction of travel and which can be switched between as required, such as dipped beams, high beams, fog lights, etc. Furthermore, it is known on the one hand to provide manually steerable headlights, for example for aiming at markers or for searching terrain in off-road vehicles. [0003] On the other hand, recently, automatically controlled headlights are also provided, which are either controlled according to the radius of curvature, yaw rate or lateral accel...
