Systems and methods for automatic adaptive headlight control in a vehicle are disclosed. The systems and methods can detect one or more conditions, such as presence of a nearby object and/or poor visibility. The headlight can account for the one or more conditions by dynamically and automatically adjusting the total intensity of light output from the headlight, creating one or more different patterns of intensity of light, emitting different colors of light, or a combination thereof. In some examples, the headlight can include a plurality of independently controlled light emitters or a liquid crystal element. In some examples, one or more currents and/or duty cycle values can be adjusted. In some examples, the headlight can be divided into a plurality of sections, such that each section can emit different wavelengths (e.g., colors) of light.
