Abstract
A headlight for a motor vehicle includes a plurality of illuminants, wherein the illuminants are arranged in a matrix which has a first direction of extension and a second direction of extension which is perpendicular to the first direction of extension. In order to operate the headlight more efficiently a value of the luminance is individually adjustable for each of the illuminants, and the value of the luminance of the respective illuminants is adjustable in dependence on a position of the illuminants along the first direction of extension and/or the second direction of extension according to at least one predetermined distribution function.
