Lighting Device for a Motor Vehicle

Abstract

A lighting device for a motor vehicle includes a light source and a spatial three-dimensional light modulator, on which light originating from the light source falls, wherein the three-dimensional light modulator can be activated electrically in order, during operation of the lighting device, to modulate the amplitude of the light falling thereon in such a way that a predefined light distribution is produced in the surroundings of the motor vehicle. Provided in the lighting device is a scanner, on which light originating from the light source falls and which is configured to carry out a scanning movement, such that a moving light beam which illuminates a predefined region on the three-dimensional light modulator is produced from the light which falls on the scanner.
