Abstract(in English) Despite the fact that a variety of ADAS (Advanced Driver Assistance Systems) are developed, there are still many fatal car accidents involving pedestrians, where many of them occur at night. Recently, headlights are becoming capable of selectively projecting light on a pedestrian in addition to the normal forward projection. However, it is still not known how the light should be projected to effectively improve the visibility of the pedestrian. We have been analyzing effective flickering light patterns for improving the visibility in a laboratory setting. In this report, we report the analysis in the field, and discuss the difference according to experimental environments.
