Amidst rumors that Apple is trying to partner up with an established automaker to manufacture an Apple-designed electric car, it's probably not all that surprising that we're seeing a noticeable uptick in the number of auto-related patents emanating out of Cupertino. Not long after we highlighted an Apple patent detailing a smart lighting system for an automotive interior comes word (via 9to5Mac) of yet a new patent which describes a novel use for infrared headlights.
The patent was initially filed in 2018 and is appropriately titled Nighttime Sensing. The patent relays that driving in low-light environments can present challenges for existing lighting systems given that the illumination level of headlights can be restricted by various regulations. In turn, this serves to limit the ability of drivers to see upcoming objects in the car's path and subsequently reduce overall safety.
