Dynamic headlight beam throw adjustment
WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 45 other vehicles, including the 2016 BMW M5, 2016 BMW 550i xDrive, 2016 BMW 550i, 2016 BMW 535i xDrive, and 2016 BMW 535i. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
The automatic headlight beam throw adjustment thus ensures that oncoming traffic is not dazzled. The automatic headlight beam throw adjustment is supported by two ride height sensors. one ride height sensor each located on the front axle and the rear axle of the vehicle. Data from ride height sensors are evaluated directly by the Integrated Chassis Management (ICM). The footwell module (FRM) or front electronics module (FEM) or body domain controller (BDC) receives the signals from the integrated chassis management (ICM).
The dynamic headlight beam throw adjustment was developed for compensating pitching movements that occur as a result of braking and acceleration.
