A method is provided for non-contact interaction with a module, the module including a first submodule and a second submodule, a primary beam being generated by the first submodule in a first method step, the primary beam being deflected by the second submodule in a second method step in such a way that a piece of image information is projected onto a projection area, the primary beam being deflected by the second submodule in a third method step in such a way that a piece of operating information is projected onto an operating area, a control signal being generated by the module in a fourth method step if a control command is detected in a locating zone associated with the primary beam, the operating area being projected onto an operating object in the third method step if the operating object is positioned in the locating zone.
