Abstract:
1. A device for deflecting a light beam in two different directions, comprising: a mirror; a first rotating actuator element configured to rotate about a first axis as a function of a first actuation signal; a second rotating actuator element disposed opposite to the first rotating actuator element along the first axis and configured to rotate about the first axis as a function of a second actuation signal; a first spring element connected to the first rotating actuator element and, off-axially with respect to the first axis at a predetermined first distance thereto, to the mirror in a rest position of the mirror; and a second spring element connected to the second rotating actuator element and to the mirror, so that the mirror is rotatable about the first axis when the first and second actuation signals have a same form and do not have a phase shift with respect to one another and rotatable about a second axis that is different from the first axis when the first and second actuation signals have at least one of a different form and a phase shift with respect to one another.
