METHOD FOR CONTROLLING DIRECTIONAL LIGHTING AND LIGHTING DEVICE IMPLEMENTING THIS METHOD

The invention relates to a method for controlling bending light generated by a vehicle lighting device emitting a luminous flux that varies depending on the movement of the vehicle, the method includes determining at least three initial luminous-flux images, each initial luminous-flux image corresponding to emission of light by the lighting device in a predefined direction. When the vehicle is not following one of the predefined directions, determining an intermediate luminous-flux image to be emitted by the lighting device in an intermediate direction, by weighted averaging of two of the three initial luminous-flux images corresponding to the directions flanking the intermediate direction most closely and projecting, onto the road scene, depending on the direction of movement of the vehicle, the initial or intermediate luminous-flux image.
