Does that relate to driver-controlled height adjustment of the headlights?

No, the level is fixed for the high and low beams. I guess the driver can adjust them with a screwdriver but not while driving.

I’m just mentioning that headlight automation was being done back in the 1960s with simple electronics. Just a photo cell and a lens. The driver can adjust sensitivity.
