Abstract
A headlamp system is provided for vehicles with an imaging unit and with an optical unit. The optical unit generates a light distribution that features a plurality of light patches. The light patches are each generated by mapping of at least one light pixel of the imaging unit. An actuator unit includes a corrective mechanism, by which, in event of presence of a defective light pixel that cannot be mapped by the optical unit on a light patch, at least one corrective light pixel is actuated, by means of which a light patch adjacent to the defective light patch not illuminated by the defective light pixel features a changed intensity progression in comparison to non-defective state. At least one flight patch adjacent to the defective light patch features an increased corrective intensity progression in comparison to the non-defective state.
