Abstract

See full text

A vehicle headlight (1) is equipped with: a light source unit (10) for forming a light distribution pattern which can be changed by light beams emitted from a light source group (130); and a control unit (CO). In a case where a detection signal of another vehicle present in front of an ego-vehicle (100) is inputted from a detection unit (29) for detecting the other vehicle, the control unit (CO) causes first light sources of the light source group (130), which emit light toward a first region (AR1) including a region overlapping a visual recognition part of the other vehicle used by a driver thereof to visually recognize the outside of the other vehicle, to emit light having a lower intensity than in a case where no detection signal is inputted, and causes second light sources, among second light sources of the light source group (130) that emit light toward a second region (AR2) surrounding the first region (AR1), which emit light toward a lower-side region (BA1) lower than the first region (AR1), to emit light with an increasingly lower intensity toward the side closer to the first region (AR1).
