Headlamp

A headlamp is a lamp attached to the front of a vehicle to light the road ahead. While it is common for the term headlight to be used interchangeably in informal discussion, headlamp is the term for the device itself, while headlight properly refers to the beam of light produced and distributed by the device.

Headlamp performance has steadily improved throughout the automobile age, spurred by the great disparity between daytime and nighttime traffic fatalities: the US National Highway Traffic Safety Administration states that nearly half of all traffic-related fatalities occur in the dark, despite only 25% of traffic travelling during darkness.

Other vehicles, such as trains and aircraft, are required to have headlamps. Bicycle headlamps are often used on bicycles, and are required in some jurisdictions. They can be powered by a battery or a small generator.

History of automotive headlamps

Mechanics

The earliest headlamps were fueled by acetylene or oil, and were introduced in the late 1880s. Acetylene lamps were popular because the flame is resistant to wind and rain. The first electric headlamps were introduced in 1898 on the Columbia Electric Car from the Electric Vehicle Company of Hartford, Connecticut, and were optional. Two factors limited the widespread use of electric headlamps: the short life of filaments in the harsh automotive environment, and the difficulty of producing dynamos small enough, yet powerful enough to produce sufficient current.

Headlights (album)

Headlights is an album by The Whispers released in 1978 on the SOLAR Records label. This album charted at number 22 on the Billboard Soul Albums chart.

Music video

A music video to accompany the release of "Headlights" was first released onto YouTube on 3 April 2015 at a total length of three minutes and forty-nine seconds. The video features a small group of pool-goers in an abandoned waterpark in Portugal. The people do water-related stunts in the empty pools. A comment made on the official YouTube video for "Headlights" made by a user named Franscisco Chirinos postulated that "They all dead; their lives were particularly affected by events happened on this swimming pool which is already closed. The kid sees them because he is special or because he has just died. He's the new member of this group of dead people acting mindlessly on an endless loop." The comment was popular, but it still is just a theory. The video ends with a couple posing with, and then driving off in a Toyota Aygo, with the numberplate "AYGO8"- which suggests that the video is simply just one long advert for the Toyota Aygo.
