Here is a more detailed explanation about VLD found in Coding Threat thanks to opasha

Variable Light Distribution has several different modes of operation (for Low Beam):

1 - City Light: Shallow and Very Wide Beam Pattern active from 0 - 50kph (30MPH) (Both Headlamps are Panned outwards 12 horizontal from center and 0.7 lowered vertically)

2 - Standard Light: Same Basic Beam Pattern as with 8S4 Enabled and Headlamp Switch Set to Auto. Active from 50 - 110kph (30MPH - 68MPH)

3 - Guiding Fog Light - Shallow and Wider Beam Pattern Enabled with the Front Fog Lamps On and Headlamp Switch in Auto and Speed 0 - 110kph (Both headlamps are panned outwards 8 horizontal from center and lowered 0.7 vertically)

4 - Highway Light - Long Throw Pattern illuminating approx. 25% further than Standard Light. Active from 110 to 250kph (68MPH- 155MHP). (Driver's Side Headlamp is panned 3.5 outwards Horizontal from center and lowered 0.25 vertically, while the passenger side headlamp is raised 0.2 vertical) (thank you @shawnsheridan)

Clarification of VLD, HBA, and Anti-Glare/Anti-Dazzle (thank you @skalberti):

VLD is Variable Light Distribution - It only works on your low beams to move your headlights and position the beams on the road depending on steering angle and vehicle speed.

HBA is High Beam Assistant - USA spec high beams that turn off in the presence of headlights or taillights of other cars and automatically turns the high beams on if no other cars are present.

Anti-Glare, Anti-Dazzle - European spec high beams that enable your car to keep the high beams on without blinding other cars.
I'm sold! Thank you for sharing that. I literally cannot wait to have these things coded!
Have you got your VLD coded yet?
Not yet, I need to find a another Windows PC. The one I use for work is locked down by AIG's active directory Group policy, so I can't disable the windows firewall. I need to spin up a virtual machine on my MacBook Pro, I just haven't had time yet.

Gents,
what are the prerequisites to coding anti dazzle and/or hi beam assistant? I have 07/2018 G31 with "normal" LED headlamps. How do I know if this is possible for my car, too?

552 Adaptive LEDs or 5AZ laser lights on NA vehicle. If anything of that does not apply, then either not possible or not needed.

You are welcome. That just means that you would require hardware swap if you want optimal functionality.
