Description
Summary:In this paper, we propose an intelligent auto-dipping system that will be placed on the dashboard of the vehicle. The moment it detects headlights of an oncoming vehicle, the high beam of host vehicle will be dipped automatically, with a flash of dipper to signal the oncoming vehicle. The system will be most effective when every vehicle has this auto-dipper installed. This system would help prevent accidents caused due to the dazzling created by oncoming high beams. The proposed system uses a USB web cam and Raspberry Pi for real time processing. The validation of the system has been done using both simulation and actual hardware.
