The present disclosure relates to a motor vehicle lighting device comprising a lighting element with a plurality of light sources and a cover element which is designed to change between a transparent operating state and an opaque operating state. In order to allow an improved display of contours on a motor vehicle lighting device, the cover element has a plurality of cover segments, wherein each cover segment can be actuated individually with respect to the transparent and opaque operating state, and the motor vehicle lighting device has a light guiding element, said light guiding element being designed such that light emitted by the plurality of light sources is guided from a plurality of first coupling surfaces, at which the light guiding element is optically coupled to each of the light sources, to a plurality of second coupling surfaces, at which the light guiding element is optically coupled to each of the cover segments, each of the second coupling surfaces than bigger than the first coupling surfaces.

This disclosure relates to a headlight for a motor vehicle comprising a carrier element, on which a plurality of LEDs are arranged, which can be individually controlled in terms of light output, in order to output light according to a predefinable light distribution by means of the headlight. The LEDs are designed as micro-LEDs and at least one sensor element is arranged in an LED-free region of the carrier element.

A one-piece display has a main display area at least partly viewable from one point of observation, and a secondary display area arranged so as to not be viewable from that point of observation. The main display area and the secondary display area are arranged relative to one another in such a way that the secondary display area is reflected in the main display area to produce a virtual display plane that is viewable from the point of observation.

Display apparatus for a motor vehicle

A display and an adjustment device are included in a display adjustment system for an instrument panel of a vehicle. The adjustment device adjusts the display from an original position in the instrument panel into a central position in a passenger compartment of the vehicle. The adjustment device moves the display from the original position of the display in the instrument panel along a central longitudinal axis of the vehicle in the direction of a rear part of the vehicle and transversely with respect to the longitudinal central axis of the vehicle in the direction of a driver's seat so that the display is adjusted into the central position in the passenger compartment of the vehicle.

An operating device for a motor vehicle, having a touch-sensitive operating element with a frame element and a central region. The touch-sensitive operating interface has a predetermined operating region at each of at least two predetermined touch positions for activating an operating function assigned to the respective operating region. The operating element is arranged to be displaceable at least partially along a translation axis that intersects the operating interface. The operating device has only one detection element, which is arranged facing an inner side of the touch-sensitive operating element that faces away from the touch-sensitive operating interface, and which is arranged to detect a displacement of each operating region along the translation axis.

At least one display object is displayed by a first display mechanism and a second display mechanism, each having a display surface. At least one of the two display mechanisms is designed such that the display object is produced in a first predetermined sub-region on one of the two display surfaces. The display surfaces are mirror-like, arranged parallel to each other and facing each other such that a mirror shaft is formed between the display surfaces of the first display mechanism and the second display mechanism, such that the display surfaces reflect each other inside the mirror shaft. The motor vehicle display device is designed to reflect the at least one display object produced in the first predetermined sub-region, after a predefinable number of reflections inside the mirror shaft, in a second predetermined sub-region of the first display mechanism outside the mirror shaft.

A steering handle for a steering apparatus of a motor vehicle includes an end face which faces a user when the steering handle is in a position of use and a display element arranged on a side of the steering handle which faces away from the end face. A control device carries out a method by which a position of the steering handle is changed based on a driving mode set by a driver assistance device. The control device generates an adjustment signal to change between a position of use of the steering handle and a position of rest of the steering handle. When the steering handle is in a position of rest, a surface of the steering handle which faces away from the user when the steering handle is in the position of use instead faces the user.

A proximity-sensitive and touch-sensitive screen includes a display area with first and second segments, the second segment arranged on the first segment along a contact line, on an operator control and display device. At least the second segment can be pivoted, along the contact line, with respect to the first segment to temporarily form an operator control element, thereby providing easier and more reliable operator control.

The invention relates to a method for operating an interactive visibility screen on a transparent pane of a pane device, in particular in a motor vehicle. The visibility screen is generated by means of a display unit of the pane device on the pane by pixel-wise fade-in of opaque image points, wherein the image points form a coherent visibility screen area. In the method, an operational action by the user is first detected by means of a detection device, which comprises a selection of a setting range and a movement relative to the pane. Subsequently, an expansion of the visibility screen area at the setting range is set as a function of the detected movement by means of a control device.

At least one piece of information is displayed by a display apparatus in a motor vehicle. The display apparatus has a first subregion in the form of a viewing window of the motor vehicle, where the viewing window is part of the boundary of an interior of the motor vehicle. A second display subregion, designed to display the information, is formed integrally with the first subregion, such that the first subregion and the second display subregion lead into one another at an angle. At least regions of the second display subregion are designed so as to project into the interior of the motor vehicle.

A display device for a motor vehicle includes a first, planar display element arranged in a first display plane of the display device, and at least one further, planar display element, each arranged in a further display plane of the display device, upstream of the first display element in a viewing direction of a user. Together with the first display element, the at least one further display element forms a multilayered combination of display elements. Each of the at least one further display element has an at least partly transparent display surface and a visual protection element for setting a degree of a transparency of at least one region of the display element.
