    摘要: The invention relates to a method and a device for determining a deceleration setpoint value of an autonomous vehicle (204), the autonomous vehicle (204) comprising an adaptive cruise control capable of decelerating the autonomous vehicle according to a first deceleration setpoint (215), referred to as standard deceleration, the autonomous vehicle (204) traveling along a first lane (201) at a first speed, the vehicle heading into a second lane (202) subject to a speed limit (208) at a distance, D, relative to the beginning (203) of the second lane (202), said method comprising the steps wherein: —a necessary deceleration is calculated; —the deceleration setpoint of the autonomous vehicle (204) is determined; —the adaptive cruise control applies the deceleration setpoint thus determined in order to decelerate the autonomous vehicle (204) from the beginning (203) of the second lane (202).

    摘要: The present invention relates to a method for operating a high-resolution projection headlight for a motor vehicle. The high-resolution projection headlight has an active LED pixel matrix light source which comprises an LED matrix monolithically integrated into a semiconductor chip with a plurality of light diode-based pixels and a driver circuit for separately controlling each individual pixel within the LED matrix. A current digital image of a sequence of images is continuously rasterized by means of a graphical controller from graphical data with at least one graphical object (50) and is provided for image reproduction with the projection headlight. A value for a thermal loading of the LED pixel matrix light source is continuously determined. During the rasterizing of a current digital image, surface areas (52) of the graphical objects (50) to be projected are at least partially masked with a masking (60, 61) and modulated, provided that the value for thermal loading exceeds a limit value. The invention also relates to a corresponding projection headlight system for a motor vehicle.
