Claim 15:
16. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 15, wherein the instructions when executed by the at least one processor, further cause the at least one processor to at least:
receive sensor data captured by at least one sensor associated with the autonomous vehicle;
detect, based on the received sensor data, a presence of oncoming traffic;
in response to the oncoming traffic being detected, turn on one or more of a low beam infrared light source of the headlight and a low beam light source of the headlight;
determine a quality of an infrared image captured by an infrared camera associated with the autonomous vehicle;
determine that the quality of the infrared image is less than a threshold infrared image quality; and
increase an intensity of infrared light emitted from the low beam infrared light source until the quality of the infrared image becomes at least equal to the threshold infrared image quality.
