Abstract
A method is provided for monitoring an image refresh frequency of HD headlights for a vehicle. The HD headlight has a control unit that causes a display with light point sources to generate light images in continued temporal succession for a predefined time duration. An image refresh frequency corresponding to the inverse of the predefined time duration is updated by a next light image. A video signal composed of image information items and signal information items is provided to the control unit by a video interface that impresses the temporally changing information item on the signal information items of the video signal. The control unit checks the signal information items of the video signal with respect to the temporally changing information item to assess correspondence with the temporal succession available to the HD headlight and a substitute reaction of the HD headlight is initiated in the event of erroneous correspondence.
