VEHICLE CABIN ARRANGEMENT COMPRISING A LIGHTING DEVICE

The invention relates to a vehicle cabin arrangement (1) for a vehicle body and to a method for lighting a vehicle cabin and for displaying information using such a vehicle cabin arrangement. A lighting device (5) with a light-emitting surface (15) directed towards the cabin interior space (11) is provided on a ceiling section (3c). Said lighting device has a plurality of separate lighting elements (17), each having a dedicated light-emitting element surface (19), which lighting elements can assume different switch-on states and/or light emission states which differ in terms of at least one property of the emitted light. In addition, a control device (7) for controlling the lighting device (5) is provided. The lighting elements (17) are arranged in such a way that, both in the direction parallel to the cabin longitudinal axis (9) and in the direction perpendicular to the cabin longitudinal axis (9), a plurality of element surfaces (19) are arranged next to one another. The control device (7) is adapted so as to control each lighting element (17) individually with respect to its switch-on state and/or its light emission state. Said control device has a storage device (21) for storing a plurality of control parameter sets, which each correspond to a different light emission pattern, which is characterized by different switch-on states and/or light emission states of different lighting elements (17). The control device (7) is adapted to control the lighting device (5) selectively for each of the control parameter sets in such a way that the lighting elements (17) are operated in accordance with the corresponding light emission pattern.
