Embodiment Construction

[0039] figure 1 A plan view of motor vehicle 2 on road 4 is shown.

[0040] The motor vehicle 2 travels in the direction of travel X. In this direction there is a right curve 6 ahead in the direction of travel. The right curve 6 has a curve radius R which is smaller than the critical curve radius rG1 but larger than the critical curve radius rG2 .

[0041] Motor vehicle 2 has two headlights 8 , 10 . These headlights 8, 10 are matrix headlights. These headlights 8 , 10 are connected to a control device 12 which controls the light distribution of the headlights 8 , 10 . A plurality of light distributions can thus be adjusted, two of which are shown here, a standard high-beam distribution LVs and a first-stage right-curve high-beam distribution LVr1 . Other light distributions are also possible, for example wider turning light distributions, not shown, for narrower curves.

[0042] The control device 12 is also connected to a camera 14 which monitors an area in the directio...

Abstract

A motor vehicle headlight and method for operating the headlight is disclosed, wherein the headlight is operated in a main beam mode or in a partial main beam node. A light distribution of the main beam of the headlight is adapted as a function of a course of a road which is being travelled along by the motor vehicle. In addition, a motor vehicle headlight is described.

Description

technical field [0001] A method for operating a headlight of a motor vehicle and a headlight of a motor vehicle are described below. The headlights can be operated in high beam mode or partial high beam mode. Background technique [0002] Headlights of the aforementioned type are known from the prior art. Known headlights are capable of operating in multiple modes. It is known that the headlights can be operated in a low beam mode which has a limited effective range so as not to dazzle oncoming traffic. In addition, most headlights can also be operated in high-beam mode, in which a longer and more powerful range is achieved with a smaller light cone angle. In addition, the relatively narrow high beam distribution should reduce obstruction or impact on oncoming traffic through glare. [0003] In addition, so-called turn signals are known, ie motor vehicle headlights which change their direction of illumination in the direction of the inside of the curve when driving in a ...
