Abstract:
An increase in the execution period of light distribution control is inhibited by reducing the number of images required for the light distribution control while achieving both object detection and light distribution control function. The present invention has an object detection unit for performing an object detection process, a light point detection unit for performing a light point detection process, and a light distribution control unit for controlling the illumination state of headlights on the basis of the result of the object detection process and the result of the light point detection process.

Claim (Index 1):
A headlight control device comprising:\n an object detection unit that performs an object detection process on the basis of an image imaged by an imaging device; a light spot extraction unit that performs a light spot extraction process on the basis of the image imaged by the imaging device; and a light distribution control unit that controls an illumination state of a headlight on the basis of a result of the object detection process and a result of the light spot extraction process.
