Abstract
A vehicle lamp control device includes an information acquisition unit that acquires snowfall information, and a controller that controls a vehicle lamp capable of changing a formation position of a light distribution pattern. The controller controls the vehicle lamp so as to lower the formation position from a predetermined reference position when snowfall is perceived, and when the snowfall amount is larger than a predetermined value, the controller substantially lowers the formation position as compared with the formation position when the snowfall amount is smaller than the predetermined value.
Claims6
A vehicle lamp control device comprising:
- an information acquisition unit that acquires snowfall information;
- and
- a controller that controls a vehicle lamp capable of changing a formation position of a light distribution pattern,
- wherein the controller controls the vehicle lamp so as to lower the formation position from a predetermined reference position when snowfall is perceived, and when the snowfall amount is larger than a predetermined value, the controller substantially lowers the formation position as compared with the formation position when the snowfall amount is smaller than the predetermined value.
A vehicle lamp control device comprising:
- an information acquisition unit that acquires snowfall information;
- and
- a controller that controls the vehicle lamp capable of changing a formation position of a light distribution pattern,
- wherein the controller controls the vehicle lamp so as to lower the formation position from a predetermined reference position when snowfall is perceived, and when a vehicle speed of an own vehicle is faster than a predetermined value, the controller substantially lowers the formation position as compared with formation position when the vehicle speed of the own vehicle is slower than the predetermined value.
