Abstract
Present vehicle suspensions result in considerable changes in vehicle attitudes with varying loads. These changes can greatly affect headlamp performance. This paper examines the need for accurate headlamp aim and considers the performance requirements of automatic aim-correcting devices and the performance of a specific arrangement now being fitted experimentally to a number of British cars.
