The subject knowledge on the Bachelor´s degree level is requested.

 

Evaluation: 2 tests (up to 10 points for both tests), laboratory excercises (up to 20 points). The test has a compulsory written part (up to 50 points) and a compulsory oral part (up 20 points). The content of the exam corresponds to the subject annotation.
Evaluation of activities is specified by a regulation, which is issued by the lecturer responsible for the course annually.

The aim of the course is to acquaint students with the principles of operation of headlamps and rear lamps in automotive, to explain the principle of generation and detection of optical radiation, and to acquaint students with the principle of adaptive headlights and projection of signs. Another goal of the course is to acquaint students with VLC communication between automobiles (V2V) and between automobiles and infrastructure (V2I) in the optical spectrum. Students will learn the basics of automotive lighting design, and get acquainted with the sources of light pollution and other optical systems for imaging and data transmission.
The graduate of the course will be able to: (a) describe basic aspects of automotive lighting technology, optical sources, and optical detectors; (b) describe and explain the function of the headlamps and rear lights in automobiles; (c) describe and explain the function of drivers for automotive lamps; (d) explain the function of displays, holograms, and lidars in automotive; (e) describe VLC communication systems V2V and V2I; (f) describe light pollution associated with automotive.
