Abstract: Night time driving with conventional headlamps is particularly unsafe Major road accidents occur during night time. About 25% of driving done at night time. About 55% of accidents occur during this period. The highest fatal traffic accident rate occurs on curved roads at nighttime. The existing conventional light systems do not provide illumination in the right direction on curvy roads. Due to this constraint, a need to understand an alternative technology solution. The aim is to improve visibility for driver and so achieve a significant increase in safety and driving comfort. This calls for a flexible front light for automobiles to illuminate the road ahead in the night corner. Adaptive front lighting system (AFS) helps improve driver’s visibility at night time hence achieving enhance safety. AFS (adaptive front-lighting system) used to detect information about the corner in advance with help of sensor which detects the information send it to the motor to adjust headlamps to get the lighting beam which was suitable for the corner. Through this way, it could avoid "blind spot" caused by the fixed lighting area when coming into the corner, and improve driving safety
