PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a headlight control device for a vehicle which can surely irradiate the advancing direction of the vehicle by the headlight, and control to a maximum irradiated state while preventing a driver of an oncoming vehicle or a leading vehicle from being dazzled. SOLUTION: The headlight control device performs (S2) a course prediction processing, when a present place and the own vehicle speed are detected (S1: YES), calculates (S3) the optical axis direction of the headlight based on the course prediction, and controls (S4) the right and left of the headlight. Next, when the control device inputs (S5) the image from the camera, and it is determined (S7: YES) that there is the oncoming vehicle or the leading vehicle from the result (S6) of the image processing, it calculates (S11) the optical axis direction to the headlight, and controls (S12) the vertical and horizontal direction of the headlight, when the relative distance with the oncoming vehicle or the leading vehicle is detected (S10: YES). When it is determined (S7: NO) that there is no oncoming vehicle nor leading vehicle, the device controls (S8) the headlight to the maximum of the upper direction. COPYRIGHT: (C)2007,JPO&INPIT |
