Abstract
An interior lighting system for a vehicle, including two optical modules, each optical module including a plurality of selectively activatable light sources, a primary optical element including primary members, each arranged to face one of the light sources respectively, for collecting the rays emitted by the corresponding source, the primary optical element being configured to form an elementary beam which is dependent on the rays emitted, and a secondary optical element for projecting the elementary beam into an area of the passenger compartment. According to the invention, the optical modules are configured so that the two projected elementary beams are at least partially superimposed on one another in the area of the passenger compartment.
