Method for controlling a headlight system of a motor vehicle and controller and device for carrying out the method

摘要

A method and apparatus for controlling a headlight system of a motor vehicle is disclosed. The headlight system can be actuated in at least two control modes, each having an associated, predetermined maximum main beam width. First, a current driving situation of the motor vehicle is captured on the basis of at least one operating, parameter of the motor vehicle. A current control mode is ascertained based on which control mode from at least two control modes matches a control mode assigned to the captured driving situation on the basis of the captured current driving situation and at least one-time or temporal parameter. The controller is shifted into the assigned control mode when the current control mode does not match the assigned control mode, wherein a maximum main beam width is set for the current driving situation.

1. A method for controlling a headlight system of a motor vehicle, which can be actuated in at least two control modes, the method comprising:
assigning a driving status to each of at least two control modes, wherein each control mode has a predetermined maximum main beam width associated therewith; capturing a current driving situation of the motor vehicle on the basis of at least one operating parameter measured locally at the motor vehicle; ascertaining when a current control mode matches one of the least two control modes on the basis of the captured current driving situation and at least one temporal parameter; and automatically shifting the headlight system into the assigned control mode when the current control mode does not match the assigned control mode so that the predetermined maximum main beam width is adapted to the current driving situation.
