20140371981 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR OPERATING A VEHICLE - In a method for operating a vehicle, a vehicle guidance activity of a driver of the vehicle is monitored so that, based on the monitored vehicle guidance activity, driving parameters describing a driving style of the driver are generated and provided to a driver assistance system of the vehicle so that the driver's driving style is at least partly reproduced in the context of control of the vehicle by the driver assistance system. | 12-18-2014 |
20150353083 | CREATION OF AN OBSTACLE MAP - A method for creating an obstacle map of an area surrounding a motor vehicle on a road includes preparing a rasterized obstacle map, scanning an area surrounding the motor vehicle, dividing the surrounding into cells, recording those of the cells that are occupied by an obstacle, and identifying grid points of the obstacle map that correspond to occupied cells in the surrounding area. The dimensions of the cells are determined as a function of the position thereof relative to the course of the road. | 12-10-2015 |
20150353084 | Method and device for monitoring a setpoint trajectory of a vehicle - A method for monitoring a setpoint trajectory of a vehicle, including the following: recording the surroundings of the vehicle, ascertaining a clearance based on the recorded surroundings and checking the setpoint trajectory for freedom from collision, based on the clearance, in order to ascertain whether traveling on the setpoint trajectory would result in a collision or not. Also described is a device for monitoring a setpoint trajectory of a vehicle and a related computer program. | 12-10-2015 |
20160001775 | Method for ascertaining an emergency trajectory and method for partially automated or automated driving of an ego-vehicle - A method for ascertaining at least one emergency trajectory of an ego-vehicle using an assistance system, in particular a driver assistance system of the ego-vehicle, and/or an automatic driving function, upon detection of an imminent collision of the ego-vehicle, at least one emergency trajectory of the ego-vehicle being ascertained by the assistance system or the automatic driving function under consideration of at least one other trajectory of at least one other object which is different from the ego-vehicle. Also described is a computer program or a computer program product, a computer unit or a processing unit, and a safety device, in particular having an assistance system and/or an automatic driving function for a vehicle, including a motor vehicle. | 01-07-2016 |
20160101778 | method and device for operating a vehicle - A method for operating a vehicle, a risk parameter being ascertained for a driving route section of a driving route of the vehicle, the risk parameter including an accident probability of the vehicle for the driving route section, the vehicle being controlled at least in an assisted manner as a function of the risk parameter, to reduce the accident probability for the driving route section. Also described is a device for operating a vehicle and a corresponding computer readable medium having a computer program. | 04-14-2016 |
20160116916 | OCCUPANCY GRID MAP FOR A VEHICLE - An occupancy grid map for a vehicle includes several cells disposed in grid-like fashion. The cells of the occupancy grid map are adapted, as a function of a driving situation of the vehicle, to the driving situation. Areas of the cells are configured to be smaller in a region closer to the vehicle, and are configured to be larger in a region further away from the vehicle. | 04-28-2016 |
20160137198 | METHOD AND DEVICE FOR OPERATING A VEHICLE - A method for operating a vehicle includes: ascertaining a danger measure of a possible stop position for a safe parking of the vehicle; comparing the ascertained danger measure to a predetermined danger measure threshold value; and guiding the vehicle to the possible stop position in order to safely park the vehicle in the possible stop position only if the ascertained danger measure is less than or equal to the predetermined danger measure threshold value. | 05-19-2016 |
20160137203 | METHOD AND DEVICE FOR OPERATING A VEHICLE - A method for operating a vehicle includes: detecting an intended strategy of a vehicle occupant for a driving strategy of the vehicle; comparing the intended driving strategy to a number of multiple possible driving strategies for a current driving situation of the vehicle; and controlling the vehicle as a function of a driving strategy that is selected based on the comparison to the number of possible driving strategies. | 05-19-2016 |
