Method of Operating a Headlight Having a Laser Light Source in a Motor Vehicle

摘要

A method is provided for operating a headlight having a laser light source in a motor vehicle. The headlight generates a light distribution from the light of the laser light source. The laser light source is activated such that the operating power of the laser light source is switched from a first power value to a deactivated operating state or is lowered to a second power value when the speed of the motor vehicle falls below a first speed threshold. The operating power of the laser light source is increased from the deactivated operating state or from the second power value to the first power value, when the speed of the motor vehicle exceeds a second speed threshold, which is greater than or equal to the first speed threshold.

1. A method of operating a headlight in a motor vehicle, the headlight having a laser light source and generating a light distribution from light of the laser light source, the method comprising the acts of:
lowering an operating power of the laser light source from a first power value to a second power value or TO a deactivated operating state when a speed of the motor vehicle falls below a first speed threshold; and increasing the operating power of the laser light source from the second power value to the first power value or from the deactivated operating state to the first power value when the speed of the motor vehicle exceeds a second speed threshold, the second speed threshold being greater than or equal to the first speed threshold.
