Ford to push a new initiative to turn headlight Technology

Ford the next generation of active steering headlights, will bring the headlight technology to another different level. Intelligent headlights beyond all styles and features, security is the core value of this system. Ford new AFS active steering headlights system, with two sets of unique optical design, significantly enhance the driving time in the corner of the road for the identification of the dead, compared to the existing AFS system more progress. And this set of new AFS system, will debut at the North American auto show early next year.

Although this system is still in the concept stage, but has been very mature, is expected next year's Detroit auto show can be seen.

The lighting system will be equipped with a body in the concept with environmental protection as the main demands on the headlights and taillights driven by solar energy, can absorb solar energy during the day and converted to a power storage, good night lighting power source vehicle.

In addition, the use of LED diode LED light source lighting system, but also to show the unique Ford technology. In addition to power saving, high brightness characteristics, there is a rather retro flavor design, reminiscent of the 50s camera. Enhance the lighting system, to enhance the safety of nighttime driving is absolutely positive help. According to the survey, there are 20% fatal crashes in the United States, which took place between midnight and six a.m.. Therefore, to improve the vehicle lighting system is an important task for Ford.

Revolutionary technology

Using two kinds of light source to enhance the lighting.

The launch of the new AFS Ford system, has been able to become the leading technology, the main reason is that the traditional active steering headlights, headlight assembly as single type design, the lighting angle will change with the rotation of the vehicle. But basically, the scope of the lighting is still limited to the place where the headlights go, and has not changed. However, the Ford AFS system integrates halogen lamps and LED two different lamps, lighting can be more average, but also more power.

When the AFS system detects that the vehicle is turning, the direction of the LED light group will respond in a very short period of time, and the halogen light group will immediately change direction to provide the lighting at the corner of the bend. The ratio of LED lighting and brightness, depending on the speed of the vehicle turning and tire rotation angle. When the vehicle is turned off, the LED lights will go out automatically to reduce energy consumption.

Ford new AFS technology, so that driving in the corner, you can see more things, directly enhance the safety of driving at night.

Ford is one of the earliest application of LED lighting technology in the production of the car factory, until today, almost every city car Ford production using LED brake light technology. The development of the AFS system, but also the application of LED diode light-emitting diodes, pushed to a completely different realm
