On December 18, 2024, an internal showcase was held at the IWID department, attracting numerous interested participants. The event provided a platform for exciting insights into our current research project and the progress achieved so far.

In addition to an informative presentation and the experimental setup on display, numerous discussions took place, leading to new ideas and interesting connections. The showcase highlighted the diversity and innovative strength of the department and fostered sustainable exchange.

The ViSUS PRO (virtual and sustainable product development) project aims to develop a teaching and learning environment, consisting of an xR lab with a specific test bench, which will enable students to acquire skills in sustainable product development through innovative learning formats.

Abstract: Light distributions must primarily meet legal requirements, but do these regulations adaptively cover severe weather conditions? What happens during a rainy night when two or more vehicles pass each other? The road acts as a secondary glare source, causing significant glare for oncoming drivers. Thus, adaptive low beam distributions are essential to enhance traffic safety and comfort for all road users.

This contribution presents a feasibility study on the latest glare-free headlamps with multipixel LEDs and their potential to add value in terms of traffic safety under severe weather conditions.

First, an overview of the latest glare-free headlamps and the technologies used will be provided. Next, the requirements for adaptive glare-free low beam distribution in severe weather conditions will be presented. The core of the study is a comparison between the necessary requirements and the potential of the latest headlamp systems to meet these requirements. Third, potential safety improvements will be discussed. Additionally, challenges to be addressed and the next steps will be mentioned.

In summary, this contribution will provide an outlook on how a pure software update of the latest headlamp systems could enhance traffic safety. Furthermore, it will demonstrate the high potential of software-defined vehicles (SDVs).
