Simulation of the control method for the adaptive front lighting system

Adaptive front lighting system becomes more and more popular today. Not only in combustion engine vehicles, but also in some of those new model electric vehicles. Since the new headlamp control system contains several components including drives and controls. Any error on design may affect the overall performance of the system. The simulation of The Auto-levelling control system is very important to ensure its functionality and compare the real output of the system from mock up models. Simulink is the programme which can be used for simulating the system.
