A method for visualizing sensor data from the surroundings of a vehicle and/or measuring data from the vehicle uses light modules in the interior of the vehicle for the visualization of the sensor data. The sensor data is detected as video data, after which the video data is analyzed in relation to relevant recognizable structures, after which the relevant structures are transferred to a video sequence with a format fitting for the respective light module, and/or sensor data not detected as video data and/or measuring data is recalculated into video sequences via an algorithm, after which the video sequences from the different data are superimposed and displayed on the light modules.

A lighting device for illuminating the vehicle interior of a motor vehicle is provided. The motor vehicle includes a plurality of light sources for illuminating the vehicle interior and a control device that can be used to actuate the plurality of light sources independently of one another. The motor vehicle further has an operator control device connected to the control device and includes segments and operator control elements that can be used to actuate the light sources independently of one another by a user. A display unit displays at least a partial image of the vehicle interior that can be illuminated or is illuminated by the controllable light sources.
