Abstract: A control unit and a method are provided for controlling a riding function of a two-wheeled vehicle. The riding function is configured to guide the two-wheeled vehicle longitudinally and/or transversely in an automated manner. The control unit is configured to detect that the riding function is activated in order to bring about automated longitudinal and/or transverse guidance by the riding function, to determine that dynamic adaptation of the riding function is requested by the driver, and in response thereto, to initiate that, with the riding function being active, a control parameter influencing the dynamics of the riding function is adapted on the basis of the requested dynamic adaptation.

The light module comprises a plurality of separately controllable sub-modules that generate a plurality of stripe-shaped segments of the spot distribution that supplement it. Also, a headlight generates the high-beam-light distribution and comprises the light module. Furthermore, a headlight system comprises a pair of the headlights disposed in a front region toward sides of the vehicle and each of which generates the high-beam-light distribution. The headlights include corresponding light modules that generate stripe-shaped segments of left and right sides, respectively, of the spot distribution such that the stripe-shaped segments of the light modules of the headlights supplement the spot distribution or are at least partially superimposed thereon.

Abstract: A headlight for a motor vehicle composes at least two semiconductor-light sources and a plurality of light refractors and/or reflecting optics. Light of each of the semiconductor-light sources is directed into a front area of the headlight such that the light produces at the front area a rule-consistent light distribution. An illuminated section of the light distribution of a first of the semiconductor-light sources is not identical with an illuminated section of a second of the semiconductor-light sources. The first semiconductor-light source defines a first construction type and the second semiconductor-light source defines a second construction type. The first construction type defines higher luminous flux and lower efficiency relative to luminous flux and efficiency defined by the second construction type.

Abstract: A method includes receiving, at a device operating in a first mode, a communication including a status indicator from a plurality of sensing devices, and storing the indicators in a memory. Operating in the first mode, a first input that includes a first actuation duration is received via a button, and the device is configured to operate in a second mode. The first actuation duration is longer than a first duration and shorter than a second duration, where an input duration exceeding the second duration configures the device to operate in a third mode. Operating in the second mode, an indication of the respective status indicator is provided on an output device for each of the status indicators. Transitions between the indications occur responsive to toggle inputs via the button. A second input is received via the button, and the device is configured to operate in the first mode.
