Hyundai Elantra: Adaptive Front Lighting System / Description and Operation
Adaptive Front-lighting System (AFLS)
AFLS(Adaptive Front-lighting System)is a headlamp orientation
control system that takes into account both steering angle and vehicle
speed to orient the headlamps to an angle that provides better nighttime
visibility.
Variable conditions make beam pattern of running vehicle kaleidoscope.
Component of AFLS
1. |
Input part : It is provided that information of speed sensor, height sensor and so on related to condition of vehicle. |
2. |
Control part (AFLS Unit) : It controls Output part by analyzing/judging Input signal. |
3. |
Output part : It drive Low beam of H/Lamp to left/right side
optimum beam pattern according to output control signal of AFLS Unit. |
Main function of AFLS

Providing optimum beam pattern in the curve road |
1. |
Enhanced visibility in the curve road |
2. |
Drive Low beam to left / right side |
|
2
| Fail-safe
|
• |
Fail-safe reaction while detecting system failure and malfunction |
1. |
Detecting signal / communication error for Swivelling |

Advantage of AFLS
| Content
| Description
|
1
| Enhanced stability
|
• |
Visibility Guarantee In case of curve road |
• |
According to vehicle Speed/Steering angle, speed/angle of
Swivel actuator is automatically controlled to provide optimum beam
pattern |
• |
Fail-safe reaction application for Driver on opposite side road
>In case error communication,automatically return initial position of Swivel actuator |
|
2
| Enhanced convenience
|
• |
AFLS operating application by driver's selection(AFLS Off switch) |
• |
Providing Diagnostic function for detecting system failure
and malfunction and check up data information (by using Diagnostic
equipment ) |
• |
Reduced wiring-harness by Applying CAN/LIN communication in vehicle |
• |
Fun Drving Function : Swivelling of Low beam
> Increasing driver's pride |
