Abstract
A spacer lamp in passenger and/or goods traffic, with a light field which dispenses light according to an illuminating configuration, wherein the light field 6 has a first and a second light source, and a control unit is provided for controlling the illumination configuration of the light field, wherein the light field 6 has a first illuminating characteristic for the eye of an average adult as he approaches the light field until a predefined spacing depending on a configuration parameter is reached, and has a second illuminating characteristic different from the first one if the spacing falls short of the predefined spacing.

19. A distance lamp in passenger and/or goods traffic comprising a light field, which emits light in accordance with a luminous configuration, wherein the light field has a first and a second light source and provision is made of a control unit for controlling the luminous configuration of the light field, and the first and the second light sources can be driven by the control unit and, by means of a control logic, the first and the second light sources can be respectively assigned a temporally variable profile of the light intensity thereof, wherein the light intensities of the first and of the second light sources can be increased and decreased diametrically oppositely in each case at a predetermined time interval, and the luminous configuration of the light field can be set with the aid of the control unit by control of the first and of the second light sources in a manner dependent on a first configuration parameter in such a way that the light field has, for the eye of an average adult upon approaching the light field until reaching a predefined distance—
- dependent on the first configuration parameter—
from the light field, a first luminous characteristic, which is characterized by a substantially constant light intensity, and, for the eye of an average adult, when the predefined distance from the light field is undershot, in accordance with a second luminous characteristic, the first light source can be distinguished at least partly from the second light source and the alternately increasing and decreasing light intensity of the light sources of the light field is consciously perceptible, wherein the predefined distance is at least 0.5 meter from the light field. - View Dependent Claims (20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30)

31. A method for controlling a distance lamp in passenger and/or goods traffic comprising a light field, which emits light in accordance with a luminous configuration, wherein the light field has at least a first light source and a second light source and provision is made of a control unit having a control logic for controlling the luminous configuration of the light field, and the first and the second light sources are driven by the control unit and the first and the second light sources are respectively assigned a temporally variable profile of the light intensity thereof, wherein the light intensities of the first and of the second light sources can be increased and decreased diametrically oppositely in each case at a predetermined time interval, and the luminous configuration of the light field is set with the aid of the control unit by control of the first and of the second light sources in a manner dependent on a first configuration parameter in such a way that the light field has, for the eye of an average adult upon approaching the light field until reaching a predefined distance—
- dependent on the first configuration parameter—
from the light field, a first luminous characteristic, which is characterized by a substantially constant light intensity, and, for the eye of an average adult, when the predefined distance from the light field is undershot, in accordance with a second luminous characteristic, the first light source can be distinguished at least partly from the second light source and the alternately increasing and decreasing light intensity of the light sources of the light field is consciously perceptible, wherein the predefined distance is at least 0.5 meter from the light field. - View Dependent Claims (32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 37, 38, 39, 40)
