AUTOMATIC HEADLIGHT INTENSITY CONTROL FOR VEHICLE TO AVOID ACCIDENTS

Abstract: This project focuses on reducing night-time road accidents caused by glare from high-beam headlights of oncoming vehicles. The proposed system uses light sensors to detect the intensity of incoming light and automatically switches the vehicle’s headlights from high beam to low beam when excessive glare is detected. Once the intensity of light decreases, the system restores the headlights back to high beam for better visibility. A microcontroller is used to control the entire process, ensuring quick and accurate response without driver intervention. This automatic headlight control system enhances driving safety by minimizing temporary blindness caused by glare, while also improving overall comfort and visibility for drivers. The design is simple, cost effective, and easy to implement in modern vehicles. By reducing human effort and reaction time, this system provides an efficient solution for safer night driving conditions and helps in preventing accidents on highways and busy roads.
