Abstract
A method for generating the light function of a direction indicator in a motor vehicle. The light function of the direction indicator is activated when the motor vehicle is in an operational state and an actuating element is actuated in the motor vehicle. In addition to the generation of the light function of the direction indicator, a ground light projection can be generated in the immediate vicinity of the motor vehicle. The ground light projection can be generated, for example, only when an ambient brightness of the motor vehicle falls below a certain limit value.
