AMS Screen Imaging System - Turnkey measurement solutions for automotive exterior lighting

Product catalog summary
Overview: The AMS Screen Imaging System by Instrument Systems is a comprehensive solution for measuring automotive exterior lighting, particularly advanced headlamps like HD, ADB, and matrix systems. It integrates camera-based luminance measurements with goniometric far-field measurements to provide rapid and precise light distribution analysis.
Key Features:
  • Utilizes the LumiCam 2400B camera for high-resolution imaging and rapid light distribution determination.
  • Includes a DSP 200 photometer for real-time measurements and screen calibration.
  • Seamlessly integrates with LightCon software for compliance testing and graphical analysis.
  • Supports compliance checks according to ECE, SAE, ICAO, and FAA regulations.
  • Offers extensive graphical visualization, including isocandela diagrams.
System Configuration:
  • Requires a light channel of at least 25 meters for setup.
  • Incorporates a goniometer for sample rotation and image stitching.
  • Includes a calibration source (ACS 630) for geometric and photometric calibration.
  • Features a projection screen coated with white diffusive paint to minimize stray light.
Benefits:
  • Significantly reduces measurement time compared to traditional methods.
  • Provides high precision with the DSP 200 photometer as a reference.
  • Supports a wide range of measurement scenarios and applications, including airfield lighting.
  • Allows for system upgrades and integration with existing AMS goniophotometers.
Technical Specifications:
  • Camera sensor: Sony IMX264LLR CMOS with 5 MP resolution.
  • Angular resolution: 0.02°.
  • Measuring range: 1 cd to 1 Mcd, extendable with optional filters.
  • Calibration: ISO 17025 compliant, with a calibration period of up to 2 years.
Conclusion: The AMS Screen Imaging System is a versatile and efficient tool for testing automotive lighting, offering rapid and accurate measurements suitable for both R&D and legal compliance testing.

AMS Screen Imaging System - Turnkey measurement solutions for automotive exterior lighting-3

Exterior automotive lighting is presently characterized by a multitude of innovations, such as adaptive driving beam systems (ADB), pixel headlamps, adaptive driving beam headlamps and high definition headlamps. The next revolution in automotive lighting lies in dazzle-free main beams in HD quality. This headlamp technology illuminates the road with maximum performance and facilitates communication as well as driver assistance. The vehicle receives detailed information about the environment from sensors that calculate in real time the brightness values for each of over two million pixels. Further...

AMS Screen Imaging System - Turnkey measurement solutions for automotive exterior lighting-4

Comparison of measurement results for typical test scenarios: The AMS screen imaging system must be set up in a light channel of at least 25 m length. In order to record the complete light distribution of the headlamp, the goniometer rotates the sample while the camera is taking a series of images that are later stitched in one image or test report. The software corrects the distance shift resulting from the rotation, and takes the measurement at the central location in the screen as a reference for correction of the complete image, but also at the boundary area (distance greater than 10 m at...

The LumiCam 2400B imaging photometer is located atop the goniometer housing in a special fixture with a tripod socket for repeatable positioning. The ACS 630 calibration source consisting of a diffusive light source and alignment laser serves for convenient software-controlled user calibration of the set-up, both geometrically and photometrically. The approximately 5 m wide projection screen is located at 10 m and coated with white diffusive, nearly Lambertian and spectrally neutral paint. Further baffles can be placed between the screen and sample to reduce the stray light influence in the lab....
