> The article never mentions, but how does the Porsche detect oncoming cars and overly reflective signs?

My Jeep Grand Cherokee does this, auto-dims the headlights when oncoming cars or reflective signs appear. I assume it's just the dumb way, if something "bright" is ahead of me then dim the lights. I don't think you have to do a lot of "image processing" to single out the direction a very bright light is pointing.
