    Road safety is a major growing concern. Adaptive front light systems aim at automatically adjusting the headlamps beam of the vehicle to illuminate the road ahead as much as possible without causing any discomfort to other drivers. The proposed system "Adaptive Front Light System of Vehicle for Road Safety" focuses on building a prototype of adaptive front lighting system that improves the night time illumination of the curved roads to the driver. In this proposed system, unlike the traditional AFS which uses steering wheel for the headlamp's horizontal adjustment, we are using a camera and ultrasonic as sensors to adjust the headlamps horizontally and vertically. This AFS uses camera as image sensor to detect and capture the details of the curved road ahead of the vehicle. Ultrasonic sensor to detect any oncoming vehicle. As a result a suitable light beam with improved road illumination is obtained for the curved roads. This will lead to better illumination and safety at the curved roads.
