Automatic headlights are headlamps equipped with an intelligent lighting system that operates automatically or with minimum input from the driver. Such headlights help enhance visibility at dusk or dawn, where there is low ambient light.

Such systems have light sensors embedded on the dashboard or in the rear view mirrors that sense the brightness around them and if insufficient light is detected, then headlight and tail light activation signal is sent across.

How It Works in Detail:

1. Light Sensors: The light sensor located at the top of the dashboard and It has the ability to detect the amount of light present around the car whether inside a tunnel or during sunset.

2. Automatic Activation: Once the level falls below the calculated benchmark, the headlamps will be activated.

3. Manual Override: However, drivers are empowered with the option of switching back to the manual mode in case of emergencies or wish to have complete control.

4. Energy Efficiency: Auto headlamps save a lot of power by eliminating the need to use headlamps unnecessarily which not only saves power but also increases the lifespan of the bulbs.
