The focus of the current study is represented by the right triangular prism (RTP) geometry retroreflector design; optical which could be a more efficient alternative to the traditional inverted corner cube geometry. While performance; 3½½-axis current manufacturing practices rely solely on the use of conventional pin-bundling techniques, the diamond cutting work reported in this study presents further enhancements of the previously introduced ultraprecise single point inverted cutting technique which can be used in a manner approximately similar to 3½½-axis kinematics. The experimental results obtained have demonstrated both the feasibility of the proposed fabrication approach as well as the optical viability of the fabricated RTP elements. 1.

The problem with early attempts to “steer” headlights was the relatively low power of the beams, limitations of the sealed-beam headlamp designs that dominated the automotive sector from 1941 through 1983 and the difficulty of truly matching mechanical linkages to what the driver needed to see. Today, adaptive lighting offers a new start with a clean slate and effective technology.

Often you can reach under the fender or behind the bumper to get to a lamp socket. If you can’t access it there, look under the hood. In some cases, the headlight assembly must be removed to gain access to these bulbs. Rear lighting can be reached through the trunk. Because the lights may be covered with carpeting or protective covers, they may not be easy to find. Those sockets not accessible through the trunk can usually be reached by removing a lens.
