1. A lighting device for at least one passenger of an aircraft, comprising:
means for providing a light projection of an operator surface on a user-defined suitable body within an aircraft, wherein:
the operator surface is adapted for generating touch signals; andthe operator surface is performed by;
a beam forming module for adjusting the light beam geometrical properties anda light forming module for adjusting the light optical properties;wherein:
the light projection is formed as a continuous adaptable light projection, wherein:
a first sensor unit provides size and position information of the suitable body for a continuous adaption of the operator surface on the body;a second sensor unit detects the generated touch signals corresponding to the position on the operator surface being touched; andthe generated information and the generated touch signals are transmitted to an operator system for achieving an operating response.
