An illumination system of a motor vehicle includes a first lighting module that is able to emit a first light beam with an upper cut-off, a second lighting module that is able to emit a second, pixelated light beam, and a system for mechanically adjusting the vertical orientation of the first and second light beams. A controller is able to receive an emission instruction for a given lighting function and is designed to control the adjusting system in order to bring about a simultaneous modification of the vertical orientation of the first and second light beams on the basis of the instruction and to control the second lighting module to emit a second, pixelated light beam having predetermined characteristics on the basis of said instruction.
A lighting system of a motor vehicle, comprising:
A lighting system of a motor vehicle, comprising a first light module which is able to emit a first lighting beam with an upper cutoff, a second light module which is able to emit a second, pixelated lighting beam, a system for mechanically adjusting vertical orientation of the first and second light beams and a controller which is able to receive an instruction to emit a given light function and arranged to control the adjustment system so as to cause a simultaneous modification of the vertical orientation of the first and second lighting beams depending on said instruction and to control the second light module so as to emit a second, pixelated lighting beam having predetermined characteristics depending on said instruction, wherein the mechanical adjustment system comprising:
A lighting system of a motor vehicle, comprising a first light module which is able to emit a first lighting beam with an upper cutoff, a second light module which is able to emit a second, pixelated lighting beam, a system for mechanically adjusting vertical orientation of the first and second light beams and a controller which is able to receive an instruction to emit a given light function and arranged to control the adjustment system so as to cause a simultaneous modification of the vertical orientation of the first and second lighting beams depending on said instruction and to control the second light module so as to emit a second, pixelated lighting beam having predetermined characteristics depending on said instruction, wherein when the controller controls the second light module so as to emit a second, pixelated lighting beam, referred to as initial, having an upper cutoff, and receives an instruction to emit a new given light function, the controller is arranged to control the second light module so as to emit a second, pixelated lighting beam having an upper cutoff, the position of which remains constant and identical to that of the initial second, pixelated lighting beam while it controls the adjustment system so as to cause a simultaneous modification of the vertical orientation of the first and second lighting beams depending on said instruction.
