Acura TLX Auto High Beam System 2020 Sedan Specification

The Acura TLX 2020 Sedan features an advanced Auto High Beam System designed to enhance nighttime driving safety and convenience. This system utilizes a forward-facing camera mounted behind the rearview mirror to detect both oncoming vehicles and vehicles ahead in the same lane. When the camera identifies the headlights or taillights of other vehicles, the system automatically switches the high beams to low beams to prevent dazzling other drivers. Once the road is clear, the system reactivates the high beams to provide maximum illumination.

The Auto High Beam System operates seamlessly in various driving conditions, adjusting the lighting without requiring driver intervention. The integration of this system with the vehicle's existing headlight architecture ensures optimal performance and reliability. It functions effectively by scanning the road up to 600 meters ahead, allowing for early detection of other vehicles. Additionally, the system is designed to work in conjunction with the TLX’s advanced driver-assistance systems, contributing to a comprehensive suite of safety features.

The high beam control is automatic and can be overridden manually if required, providing flexibility to the driver. The system is calibrated to minimize false positives, ensuring that it only activates or deactivates the high beams when necessary. This feature contributes to reducing driver fatigue and enhancing overall safety during nighttime driving. The Auto High Beam System in the Acura TLX 2020 Sedan exemplifies the blend of intelligent technology and thoughtful design, aiming to improve the driving experience by ensuring optimal visibility and reducing the need for manual headlight adjustments.
