ABSTRACT:
An illumination device has an illumination means formed by an arrangement of a plurality of semiconductor light sources (2) grouped together to form a field. Sensor elements (3) are arranged at individual positions of the field instead of the semiconductor sources (2). A multifunctional headlight can thus be advantageously created. The headlight can be embodied as a robust, compact, low-space unit. By virtue of the fact that the light sources (2) and the sensor elements (3) do not necessarily use the same lens system (1) i.e. each individual element of the multifunctional headlight can be provided with an individually designed lens system (1), the beam path of the illumination device can be separated from the field of vision of the sensor system and can thus be determined independently over large areas.
