The Design and Fabrication of Steering Controlled Headlights

The main aim of any design should not only be focused on ‘Customer satisfaction' but also ‘Customer safety'. Following this, the number of accidents have been witnessed only due to ill lighting facilities provided in an automobile. Keeping this drawback in view “Steering Controlled Headlight System” has been proposed which would hopefully turn out to be a boon to the people driving through the curved roads during night times. Automobiles are controlled by steering system. The steering system helps the driver to guide the moving vehicles on the road by turning it right or left according to his wishes. Hence a combination of this steering mechanism with a gear mesh mounted on a cam plate with a link mechanism tilts the headlights in the direction as per the rotation of the steering. This mechanism has been incorporated in BMW, Audi Q-7 and Benz etc., to ensure a safer drive
