Abstract: Embodiments pertain to a method for controlling the operation of lighting, the method comprising: actively illuminating a scene with pulsed light generated by at least one pulsed light source of a platform for generating reflections from the scene; gating in timed coordination with the active illumination of the scene, at least one of a plurality of pixel elements of at least one image sensor of the platform; receiving, at least some of the reflections from the scene; generating, reflection-based image data; and controlling, based on the reflection-based image data, the operation of platform lighting comprising a plurality of light sources that are configured in a matrix arrangement for simultaneously subjecting at least one first scene region and at least one second scene region with different illumination power.
