Abstract
An automotive lamp which reduces dazzle to the drivers of other vehicles by adjusting a light pattern of irradiated light and a method of adjusting the automotive lamp is provided. An automotive lamp includes a light irradiation device which forms first and second patterns at least partially overlapping each other by irradiating light and a control device configured to adjust light irradiation device to form a shadow area at a position of a second vehicle when the second vehicle exists in an area of a beam pattern in which the first and second patterns are synthesized with each other. The control device is configured to determine a size of the shadow area by referring to whether the second vehicle exists in a non-uniform overlap section, in which the first pattern and the second pattern overlap each other to a non-uniform degree in an irradiation section of the light.
