Abstract
A method for operating a headlight system of a motor vehicle, which during operation, illuminates an overall illumination area in the area surrounding the motor vehicle. At least two sensors are provided which detect objects in different associated sensor regions, the sensor regions of the sensors overlapping in an overlap region within the overall illumination area. The data of the sensors are fused to ascertain the existence of an object in the overlap region. Upon confirmation of the existence of the object, a zone in the overall illumination area in which the object is located is selectively excluded from illumination. A motor vehicle having a headlight system operated in this manner is also described.
