  • Headlamp Lens Deterioration
    DECEMBER 2018 HEADLAMP LENS DETERIORATION NewsRoom.AAA.com (this page intentionally left blank) 0 Headlamp Lens Deterioration Abstract The average age of registered vehicles in the United States is 11.6 years. Headlamp lenses made of polycarbonate, or plastic, begin to yellow and otherwise show signs of deterioration at five years age (± two). Plastic lenses on automotive headlamps deteriorate due primarily to extended exposure to ultraviolet radiation and abrasion by road grit. The yellowing of the headlamp lenses results in a noticeable decrease in light output. Deteriorated headlamps – when the lens is opaque to the extent that the bulb is not clearly visible – are a safety hazard. This research quantifies the reduction in light output caused by deteriorated (yellowed) headlamp lenses as well as comparing the relative performance of headlamp repair and restoration options available to the consumer. Research Questions: 1. On a vehicle with deteriorated headlamp lenses, how much is light output diminished? 2. Of the options available for headlamp restoration and/or replacement, which one improves light output the most? a. Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) replacement headlamp assembly b. Aftermarket replacement headlamp assembly (certified and non-certified) c. Professional restoration d. Do-it-yourself (DIY) restoration Key Findings: 1. Deteriorated headlamps evaluated in this research produced only 22 percent light output (low beam) when compared with new, OEM headlight assemblies. This type of headlamp, halogen reflector, only supports night-time driving (low beam) on unlit roadways at speeds up to 39 miles per hour, when in new condition. A 78 percent reduction in forward lighting is a safety hazard.

  • Do High-Intensity Discharge Headlamps Cause Glare?
    Do High-Intensity Discharge Headlamps Cause Glare? n 2001, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) asked the public to submit Icomments about headlight glare and visibility. By April 2002, NHTSA had received more than 1700 responses! The LRC is assisting NHTSA and headlamp manufactur- ers as they weigh the benefits of high-intensity discharge (HID) headlamps and the obstacles they face as the technology matures. The LRC’s work with HID headlamps We have worked with Philips Automotive Lighting to study the effect of HID headlamps on forward visibility. Our work, featured on NBC Nightly News and in USA Today, shows that HID headlamps improve peripheral target detection versus conventional halogen headlamps. In order to understand better how headlamp intensity and spectrum affect visual discomfort, we completed a prelimi- nary study of headlamp glare using halogen, HID, and blue-filtered halogen lamps. Subjects rated their discom- fort levels (1=unbearable, 9=just noticeable) and identified the minimum contrast of objects that were visible with each glare source. The results showed that • Headlamps with more short-wavelength light (~450 nm) resulted in greater discomfort than lamps with less short- wavelength content. Implications • There were no differences among the headlamps in terms If validated in the field, these results could be used to of the minimum contrast that was detectable in the optimize the spectra of HID headlamps to minimize short- presence of glare. wavelength (~450 nm) light while increasing light in the scotopic (~510 nm) region, which could minimize discomfort while improving peripheral detection. NHTSA and headlamp manufacturers will need to continue working together to identify headlamp characteristics that are optimal for visibility while reducing potential for glare.

Received: 14 July 2020; Accepted: 10 August 2020; Published: 17 August 2020 Abstract: Electric vehicles (EV) are becoming more common mobility in the transportation sector in recent times. The dependence on oil as the source of energy for passenger vehicles has economic and political implications, and the crisis will take over as the oil reserves of the world diminish. As concerns of oil depletion and security of the oil supply remain as severe as ever, and faced with the consequences of climate change due to greenhouse gas emissions from the tail pipes of vehicles, the world today is increasingly looking at alternatives to traditional road transport technologies. EVs are seen as a promising green technology which could lead to the decarbonization of the passenger vehicle fleet and to independence from oil. There are possibilities of immense environmental benefits as well, as EVs have zero tail pipe emission and therefore are capable of curbing the pollution problems created by vehicle emission in an efficient way so they can extensively reduce the greenhouse gas emissions produced by the transportation sector as pure electric vehicles are the only vehicles with zero-emission potential.
