    摘要: The present invention relates to a lighting module for a motor vehicle headlamp module including a light source able to emit light radiation, a processing device able to generate a light flux from said light radiation, and an imaging optical system able to project an exit beam from said light flux. The lighting module includes means for controlling an angular aperture of the exit beam, the angular aperture being chosen from a first aperture and a second aperture, the first aperture corresponding to a wider angle than the second aperture, so that, for a given intensity of the light radiation of the light source, the exit beam corresponding to the second aperture has a higher light intensity than the exit beam corresponding to the first aperture.

    摘要: A method for projecting at least one image, by a projection system of a motor vehicle comprising a device for detecting an event, an estimation device capable of estimating the time taken to reach the event, a processing unit capable of generating a control signal, a projection device capable of receiving the control signal and projecting digital images, and a storage unit storing at least one image representative of a pictogram. The method includes detecting an event, estimating the time taken to reach the event, selecting at least one image representing a pictogram characteristic of the detected event, and establishing a sequence of images representing an animation of the pictogram. The sequence of images is paced depending on the time estimated in estimation, and projecting the sequence of images onto the roadway.
