This adaptive system switches the high beam to low beam as soon as it senses the headlight of a vehicle approaching from the opposite direction and switches it back to high beam when vehicles pass through each other. The prototype is an electronic circuit that incorporates the use of a 12 volts power supply which is provided by the motorcycle battery itself, a light dependent resistor which acts as the sensor, a potential divider network which serves as a comparator to trigger the driver transistors connected to a solid state relay which does the switching. It was designed, constructed, tested and it worked, with light sensitivity sensing to a maximum distance of 220 meters, with a very minimal power consumption and an instantaneous response time. In addition, the headlight also automatically shift from high to low beam when the right or left turn signal is switched on. This increases the visibility of the motorcycle which would turn right or left. The installation of this automatic headlight control in motorcycles will minimize night accidents occurring as a result of the glare from approaching vehicles UR - http://181.215.242.151/cgi-bin/koha/opac-retrieve-file.pl?id=eb1c6e17ab1c936f7242bd1bdda0fece UR - http://181.215.242.151/cgi-bin/koha/opac-retrieve-file.pl?id=96cc2c2b751a5f54b68da7c3bcd8d346 ER -
