Procedure for the operation of at least one headlamp of a vehicle

1. A method for the operation of at least one headlamp of a vehicle and for the headlamp-specific adaptation of at least one non-headlamp-specific light pattern information by an interface device of the vehicle, comprising the following steps:

a) receiving the non-headlamp-specific light pattern information by a processing device of the headlamp from a central control unit located in the vehicle and separate from the headlamp,

b) transforming the light pattern information into headlamp-specific information by means of the processing device using at least one headlamp-specific parameter, and

c) controlling at least one pixel of the headlamp depending on the headlamp-specific information.

2. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the headlamp has a pixel arrangement with several pixels,

wherein the pixels are each controlled individually by the processing device by means of at least one control information to at least one of determine and vary a light distribution of the headlamp.

3. The method according to claim 2 , wherein the headlamp-specific information comprises the control information for each individual pixel of the pixel arrangement.

4. The method according to claim 1 wherein the headlamp-specific parameter comprises at least one of the information below:

optical properties of the headlamp

number and/or arrangement of the pixels of the headlamp,

brightness levels of the individual pixels,

properties of at least one reflector of the headlamp,

properties of at least one light source of the headlamp,

information on a transmission function of the headlamp,

properties of further optical components of the headlamp.

5. The method according to claim 1 wherein at least one of the transformation according to step b) and the control according to step c) is executed by at least one of a headlamp-specific algorithm executed by the processing device, a model-based calculation, and a simulation of the light radiation of the headlamp, in a manner that the headlamp-specific information comprises a control information being required for the creation of an optical light distribution pattern according the light pattern information.

6. The method according to claim 1 wherein in at least one of step b) and step c), a calculation of at least one transfer information by means of at least one of a first headlamp-specific information and one first light pattern information and at least one of a second, subsequent (in time) headlamp-specific information and second light pattern information is executed.

7. A device for a vehicle, the device comprising:

at least one processing device for the processing of at least one non-headlamp-specific light pattern information,

at least one pixel for light radiation,

wherein by means of the processing device, the light pattern information is received by one of a control device of the vehicle and an interface device of the vehicle separate from a headlamp and subsequently transformed into at least one headlamp-specific information by means of at least one headlamp-specific parameter, the pixel being controllable depending on the headlamp-specific information.

8. The device according to claim 7 , wherein the device is embodied as a high-resolution adaptive LED headlamp.
