Adaptive headlamp

An adaptive headlamp is a special kind of headlight on a car that can change its direction to help the driver see better. It works kind of like the way you can turn your head to see things better when it's dark out.

The adaptive headlamp can move in different directions and angles, and it does this by using sensors that can detect how fast the car is going, which way it's turning, and how bright it is outside.

For example, if the car is going around a curve, the adaptive headlamp will automatically turn its beam in the same direction as the car, so that the driver can see what's ahead even better. And if the car is going uphill or downhill, the headlamp will adjust so that the light stays focused on the road instead of shining up into the sky or down into the ground.

All of this helps the driver see better at night, which makes driving safer and more enjoyable. So, the next time you're out driving at night, be sure to give thanks for the amazing technology of the adaptive headlamp!
