Abstract: A utility vehicle has an electronically controlled drive train which has at least one drive unit, one steering system and one braking system. In addition, the motor vehicle has a maneuvering assistance system with a display device, an input device and a control system. The display device displays an actual orientation and an actual position of the vehicle as well as the relatively close surroundings of the vehicle on a monitor. The input device inputs a desired orientation and a desired position for the vehicle. The control system processes a maneuvering algorithm and at the same time actuates the drive train to transfer the vehicle from its actual orientation and actual position into its desired orientation and desired position taking into account the vehicle surroundings.

Abstract: A control system for a vehicle having a plurality of signal processing levels and actuators, in particular for brake, steering, engine and gearbox, for converting actuation signals and a method for controlling a vehicle. The system employs the following levels: an input level for continuous stipulations or an input level for discrete stipulations and an automation level for generating setpoint value signals, a predictive level and/or a reactive level for correcting the setpoint value signals, a coordination level for converting the set point value signals into actuation signals, and an execution level with the actuators. The actuators are connected to one another and to the coordination level by a fault-tolerant, redundant and bidirectional databus. Measures for redundant signal processing are taken, and data is transmitted in a fault-tolerant, redundant and bidirectional fashion.
