  • Publication number: 20230365131
    Abstract: A method for determining a trajectory of a motor vehicle includes identifying a plurality of objects present in the surroundings of the motor vehicle. For each object, the method includes: a) determining a speed of impact between the object of interest and the motor vehicle, b) determining a risk of injury in the event of a collision with the motor vehicle at the determined impact speed, c) determining the probability of a collision resulting in an injury between the object of interest and the motor vehicle, depending on the determined risk of injury. The method subsequently includes determining a plurality of possible trajectories for the motor vehicle, and determining the trajectory to be followed by the motor vehicle by optimising a cost function which depends on the determined collision probabilities and which minimises the risk of collision resulting in an injury between each object and the motor vehicle.
