Lighting device having dynamic lighting effects for a passenger compartment of a motor vehicle

A method of lighting a motor vehicle, wherein the motor vehicle includes a lighting device having dynamic lighting effects for a passenger compartment of a motor vehicle, the passenger compartment having a front passenger area and a rear passenger area, wherein the lighting device comprises:

• a lighting system configured to emit at least one light signal producing a dynamic effect of scrolling inside the passenger compartment along a longitudinal axis of the motor vehicle and in a direction opposite to a direction of travel of the motor vehicle, the lighting system having a light assembly extending along a length of the passenger compartment;
• and
• a control module configured to receive information originating from an autonomous driving module of the motor vehicle,
• wherein the control module is configured to implement the following steps:
• identification of a driving mode of the vehicle;
• determination of a speed of travel of the vehicle;
• choice of operating parameters of the lighting system depending on the speed of travel of the vehicle;
• activation of the at least one light signal produced by the lighting system depending on said parameters,
• wherein the choice of the operating parameters comprises identification of one or a plurality of zones of the passenger compartment to be illuminated by the lighting system, and
• wherein the choice of the one or more zones of the passenger compartment to be illuminated depends on the driving mode of the motor vehicle;
• and
• control of the at least one light signal on a basis of the information to generate a front light signal to scroll in the front passenger area at a first scrolling speed and to independently generate a rear light signal to scroll in the rear passenger area at a second scrolling speed different from the first scrolling speed at the same time.

• and
• a control module configured to receive information originating from an autonomous driving module of the motor vehicle, such that the control module configures the lighting system and controls the at least one light signal on a basis of the information to generate a front light signal to scroll in the front passenger area and to independently generate a rear light signal to scroll in the rear passenger area and to scroll the front light signal at a first scrolling speed and to scroll the rear light signal at a second scrolling speed different from the first scrolling speed,
• wherein both of the first and second scrolling speeds are proportional to acceleration of the vehicle.
