Abstract

Driving at night is dangerous. High headlight glares can make a driver temporarily blind thereby escalating the chances of fatal accidents. Many factors are considered when analyzing automobile transportation in order to increase safety. One of the most prominent factors for night-time travel is temporary blindness due to elevated headlight intensity. This is particularly prominent on single lane roads. Also, higher speed due to decreased traffic levels at night increases the severity of accidents. Proposed software module masks the high-intensity headlights, preventing temporary blindness that a driver may face and hence improves the view.
