After the difficulty to introduce ADB in the US, you will discover below an important paper from Rainer Neumann on the difficulty to develop amendments to the UN Regulations to allow the latest lighting innovations to be operated in traffic. Rainer is Chairman of the GTB Scientific Working Group, co-chairman of GTB Strategy working group, Member of the Scientific Committee in VISION, and sits on the advisory boards of ISAL, ISOL, and IFAL. He is one of the greatest automotive lighting experts, with a deep understanding and knowledge of automotive lighting and the homologation processes around the world, and has around 100 patents filed worldwide.
In his paper published below, Rainer explains that everyone is searching to improve safety in night driving, but the process of amending the regulations slows the implementation of new technologies. In conclusion, he proposes a solution to speed the process to successfully introduce provisions for symbols and patterns operating under special well-defined conditions. Additionally he recommends that GTB takes the initiative to organise and lead night-drives for the GRE government representatives in in the Geneva area, to present the latest technologies and research findings in conjunction with the leading world-wide independent institutes. This is a very important suggestion; all of us must follow!
