JOULE Signal System

GTB NewsGRE 65 (March 2011) Removed long existing exemption that allowed manual headlamp leveling for M and Removed long existing exemption that allowed manual headlamp leveling for M and

N vehicle classes (expected entry into force by end 2019) Accepted GTB proposal to undertake comprehensive study related to the glare and

visibility during night-time driving, possibly leading to re-evaluation of mandatory levelingleveling

As documented in GRE-65 Report:“17. GRE considered ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRE/2011/27, introducing mandatory automatic levelling for headlamps

(superseding ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRE/2011/2 and ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRE/2011/22). The proposal received comments from the experts of GTB (GRE-65-03 and GRE-65-17) and OICA (GRE-65-16) among others.

GRE adopted ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRE/2011/27, as amended by Annex IV to this report. GRE agreed that this adoption was subject to the development of a further proposal to be prepared by the expert from GTB who would lead a comprehensive study of the whole issue of glare and visibility during night-time driving.

Accordingly, it was agreed in case the results of the study revealed alternatives to the adopted mandatory requirements for automatic levelling and cleaning, the provisions of Regulation No. 48 would be re-examined at any time during the 90 months transitional period provided by ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRE/2011/27.

It was further agreed that, while the study would be managed by a dedicated working group based on the GTB structure, participation would be open to any GRE expert wishing to contribute The secretariat was requested to submit


participation would be open to any GRE expert wishing to contribute. The secretariat was requested to submit ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRE/2011/27 to WP.29 and AC.1 at their November 2011 sessions as draft [06] series of amendments to Regulation No. 48.”

DRAFT Scope and Terms of Reference

Activities in the area of Automotive Visibility and Glare

Priority I:Head Lighting: Total performance of the passing beam as installed and

in use during night time for M and N class vehicles

Priority II:Front Fog lamps: Total performance of the front fog lamps as installed for

M and N class vehiclesM and N class vehiclesSignal Lighting: Total performance of signalling lamps as installed for M

and N class vehicles


Activities in the area of Automotive Visibility and GlareIncluding:Effect of luminous intensity distribution on human observationEffect of luminous intensity distribution on human observationBeam performance due to installation conditions (height, initial aiming, dynamic levelling, robustness of installation,

vehicle load conditions, electrical supply and stability)Lamp performance (optical distribution, size, homogeneity, and dynamics of luminous surface, sharpness of cut-off,

levelling, cleaning)Light source performance (system accuracy spectral distribution “point” sources use of non approved replacement lightLight source performance (system accuracy, spectral distribution, point sources, use of non-approved replacement light

sources, flicker frequency)Traffic conditions (mix of road users, e.g. passenger car, heavy duty, (non)-motorized two-wheelers , pedestrians etc.),

road geometry (delineation, traffic flow objects such as traffic dividers and speed bumps) and random and/or unexpected objects on the road (e.g. pot holes).

Environmental lighting conditions (public lighting traffic density)Environmental lighting conditions (public lighting, traffic density)Human factors (frequency and duration of glare, age of drivers)Public awareness and education of importance of headlamp aim and on proper operation of aiming devicesMaintenance and care of lighting equipment on the vehicle (misaim and manual/automatic cleaning) Weather conditions with regard to glareWeather conditions with regard to glareAccident studies if results are available from third party (e.g. insurance company)

Excluding:Cost benefit calculations

Objectives

To improve the understanding of different factors that influence visibility and glare and their respective weighted importance

LED Module Definition & Replaceability

GRE-65 adopted changes to LED modules in R48 and R112:

LED modules may optionally contain one or more holders for approved replaceable light sources (R37 light sources only). An R37 light source as part of a module must be replaceablebe replaceable The additional R37 light source is subject to the condition: mixture of LED’(s) and

other light sources for the principal dipped beam or the contributor to the bend lighting or each driving beam is not allowed

LED modules may now either be “removable from its device with the use of tools”, or non-replaceable If non-replaceable it must be stated in the communication sheet of the component o ep aceab e us be s a ed e co u ca o s ee o e co po e
