Methods and apparatuses for adaptive high beam control for a vehicle

An apparatus for adaptive high beam control for a vehicle, the apparatus comprising control circuitry configured to:

• obtain a pose of the vehicle, the pose being indicative of the vehicle's position and orientation on a road;
• obtain a Three-Dimensional (3D) road model of a surrounding environment of the vehicle based on map data and the obtained vehicle pose;
• generate a 3D region of interest (3D-ROI) in the form of voxels defining a volume along the obtained 3D road model;
• form a dataset for processing by an Adaptive High Beam Control (AHBC) unit configured to adaptively control an illumination of a space in front of the vehicle by controlling an illumination of one or more headlights of the vehicle, wherein the formed dataset is based on the generated 3D-ROI and perception data indicative of one or more detected road users in the surrounding environment of the vehicle, and wherein the perception data is based on sensor data obtained from one or more sensors for monitoring a surrounding environment of the vehicle;
• and
• transmit the formed dataset to the AHBC unit so to control the illumination of the space in front of the vehicle based on the formed dataset so to avoid casting high beam illumination towards road users detected within the 3D-ROI.
