Lighting module of a lighting and/or signalling device for a motor vehicle including at least one light source positioned on a source support, an optical element comprising an input face which receives light rays emitted by said at least one light source and is positioned facing the latter, and a frame supporting the optical element and fastened to said source support. The optical element has at least one stud having a free end projecting towards the source support, said at least one stud being made of the same material as the optical element and being in direct or indirect contact with the source support when the lighting module is assembled.

A method for correcting a light pattern provided by an automotive lighting device, wherein the light pattern is provided at least by a matrix arrangement of light sources. The method includes a first step of projecting a high beam pattern with a first zone where luminous intensity is lower, the first zone having a rectangular edge with four sides. The second step includes providing a number of pixels for each of the four sides of the edge of the first zone, thus creating an upper blur zone, a lower blur zone, a left blur zone and a right blur zone. A final step includes creating a blur pattern for the upper blur zone which extends along columns, a blur pattern for the lower blur zone which extends along columns, a blur pattern for the left blur zone which extends along rows and a blur pattern for the right blur zone which extend along rows, where the luminous intensity in each row or column adapts from the luminous intensity of the first zone to the luminous intensity of the high beam pattern. An automotive lighting device configured to perform these steps is also provided.

A lighting device comprises a light-emitting module with light-emitting elements, wherein the light-emitting elements are arranged adjacent to each other and are configured to emit light towards a light-emitting side. The light-emitting module is configured such that the light-emitting elements can be addressed partially independently of each other, such that some may be brought into a switched-on state while others are brought into a switched-off state. A top layer is disposed on the light-emitting module at the light-emitting side. Further comprising a switching material capable of a reversible change in transmittance for the light emitted by changing to a higher transmittance in regions where the top layer situated on light-emitting elements in the switched-on state or to a lower transmittance in regions of the top layer situated in the switched-off state. The invention further refers to methods for producing and operating a lighting device and using a lighting device.

The invention relates to a luminous module (1) comprising a first series of at least one illuminating unit associated with a projecting optical system (2) that is configured to produce a first exit beam from light output from the first series, the first beam forming a motor-vehicle lighting function, characterized in that it comprises a second series of at least one illuminating unit associated with the projecting system (2), the projecting system being configured to produce a second exit beam from light output from the second series, the second beam forming a motor-vehicle signaling function, and wherein the first and second series comprise exit dioptric interfaces (13) located in the same focal plane of the projecting system (2).
