Abstract: An apparatus is provided for generating first computer-readable instructions and second computer-readable instructions. The second computer-readable instructions are permanently stored on a memory means. The second computer-readable instructions are adapted to cause a processing means to display a virtual object on a display means. The virtual object comprises a plurality of illumination sources, each of which is capable of being displayed in an on-state and an off-state. The processing means also receives animation data via an input means, which animation data comprises information about an order in which the illumination sources are to be displayed in the on-state and off-state. The processing means also automatically generates the first computer-readable instructions using the information from the animation data. The first computer-readable instructions are adapted to cause a controller to switch light sources on and off using the information from the animation data in a real object having the light sources. The number and arrangement of the light sources correspond approximately to the number and arrangement of the illumination sources.

Abstract: Method is provided for performing an animation with a lighting device having a plurality of light sources. An animation is described in a description language that describes at least parts of the animation as movement of an animation object in at least one spatial dimension in a virtual coordinate system. The animation described in the description language is interpreted by a control device controlling the plurality of light sources such that the light sources perform the animation.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a light module for a lighting device of a vehicle, in particular for a headlight of a vehicle. The light module comprises a light-generating unit for emitting light, an optical unit for deforming the light emitted by the light-generating unit, and a heat sink for cooling the light-generating unit, the heat sink having a front side facing the optical unit and a rear side facing away from the optical unit, the light-generating unit being situated between the optical unit and the heat sink, the optical unit comprising at least one referencing means, and the heat sink having a recess that accommodates the referencing means on the front side facing the optical unit, and the recess being closed or substantially closed at the rear.

Abstract: A method is provided for projecting a guide line onto a road surface. An anticipated trajectory of the motor vehicle is calculated from the speed and steering angle of the motor vehicle. A guide line is projected onto a road surface in front of the motor vehicle. The guide line indicates the anticipated travel path. Whether the motor vehicle is starting a curve is detected based on the steering angle. The guide line contains the shape of a first clothoid in at least a first segment when it is detected that the motor vehicle is starting to travel in a curve.
