Intelligent Lighting for Intelligent DriversIntelligent Lighting for Intelligent Drivers
Intelligent LightingIntelligent Lighting is the latest development in automotive lighting technology from Hella. Lighting that dynamically - and automatically - responds to the driving environment: This is the heart of Intelligent Lighting.
Driving at night and in foul weather present the most challenges to the driver. Road curves, obstacles at the road's edge, and isolated rural highways pose additional risks. Hella is developing Intelligent Lighting systems that will react to these types of driving situations automatically, reducing the number of decisions a driver is forced to make - allowing for safer, more relaxed travel. Hella started with DynaView - their unique dual reflector driving/cornering lamp, and now offer the flexible compact design of DynaView Evo2 - the intelligent corning light.
 What is the DynaView® - IntelliBeam® Technology?
DynaView® - IntelliBeam® TechnologyDynaView® - IntelliBeam® Technology
IntelliBeam®:IntelliBeam®: This revolutionary technology uses intelligent lighting and headlamp systems - the strain on the driver is reduced and he can fully concentrate on the driving experience!
In off-road situations DynaView® fully exploits the advantages of IntelliBeam® technology. Independently of external information through GPS systems, for example, DynaView® reacts to any change in direction with the correct cornering light, even away from the roads!
One individual DynaView® headlamp actually consists of two headlamps in a high-tech housing with dual reflectors. While the upper reflector chamber is responsible for the conventional high beam light, the lower reflector chamber has been optimized for the inside illumination of the curve using asymmetrical free-form (FF) technology.
This division of labor means that optimum light is always available - depending on the current transverse acceleration of the vehicle: for straight stretches of road the strong, straight high beam, for driving around bends the auxiliary cornering light, which is aligned to the sides of the road.
The heart of the DynaView® control center is the yaw rate sensor which permanently records the current transverse acceleration condition of the vehicle - as soon as it detects the corner, the sensor switches the correct cornering lamp on. To prevent unpleasant "holes" being formed in the beam, a dimmer gently and automatically decreases the brightness of the DynaView lamp beam as the car exits the corner.
For the first time in the world there is an auxiliary headlamp available that illuminates corners and bends intelligently to automatically eliminate unpleasant surprises during night driving. The complete system has been specifically designed for heavy-duty continuous use under difficult conditions and is thus ideally suited for trucks, motor homes and off-road vehicles. |
