Abstract: A method for the self-check of at least one driving function of an autonomous or semi-autonomous vehicle in vehicle operation, after an error message about the at least one driving function, in which in one step, at least one vehicle electronic system and/or at least one sensor is/are restarted, a check is made for a further appearance of the error message after each restart, and in the event an error message is not repeated after the restart, the driving function in question is checked during operation of the autonomous or semi-autonomous vehicle.

Abstract: A sensor device for a vehicle, in particular a motor vehicle, includes at least one sensor module and at least one connecting line connected to the sensor module for making electrical contact with the sensor module. The connecting line is formed as a conductor film, on which a plurality of different sensor modules are arranged and are housed by respectively one or a common encapsulation encompassing the conductor film, at least in some sections.

Abstract: A sensor device for a vehicle, in particular a motor vehicle, includes at least one sensor module and at least one connecting line connected to the sensor module for making electrical contact with the sensor module. The sensor module has at least one sensor. The sensor module is positioned on the connecting line, which is in the form of a conductor foil, and is encased by an overmolding which at least partially encloses the conductor foil.

Abstract: A method for transmitting a value measured by a sensor includes transmitting the measured value by a first data word and a second data word. The first data word represents the measured value at a first resolution, and the second data word represents the measured value at a second resolution.

Abstract: A method for operating a sensor device of a motor vehicle where the sensor device has sensors and a control device includes electrically connecting the sensors to the control device for signaling. One of the sensors is connected directly to the control device as a master sensor and the remaining sensors are connected to the master sensor as slave sensors. The method further includes controlling the master sensor to convey sensor data of the sensors to the control device. The method further includes processing the conveyed sensor data with the control device.

Abstract: A method for operating a sensor system for operating a sensor system includes electrically connecting sensors of a plurality of sensors to one another with a bus system. The method further includes communicating with the plurality of sensors over the bus system using a control device. The method further includes controlling one or more of the sensors of the plurality of sensors to transmit data to the control device with a predefinable bit width. The method further includes controlling one or more of the sensors of the plurality of sensors to transmit data to the control device with a reduced bit width. The sensor system includes the plurality of sensors and the control device.

Abstract: A sensor device for a vehicle at least one sensor module and at least one connecting line. The sensor module includes at least one sensor. The connecting line is connected to the sensor module and configured to electrically contact the sensor module. The at least one connecting line is configured as a conductor foil. The at least one sensor module is disposed on the conductor foil and is encapsulated by an overmold. The overmold at least partially envelops the conductor foil. The conductor foil includes a two-wire line configured to contact the at least one sensor according to a peripheral sensor interface.

Abstract: Method for checking a device for a vehicle for detecting an impact, in particular an impact with a pedestrian, by means of at least one impact-sensing means which is based on at least a first volume, in particular by means of an impact-sensing means which is based on at least one hose, a device having means for carrying out such a method and a corresponding system, in which at least one first variable is acquired, wherein the at least one first variable represents a pressure and/or a volume and/or a change in pressure and/or a change in volume in the first volume, and a result of the checking of the device is determined as a function of a profile of the at least one first variable.

Abstract: A motor vehicle is designed to be controlled autonomously. A test system for such a motor vehicle comprises a requesting device for requesting the driver-independent performance of a predetermined maneuver on the part of the motor vehicle; a scanning device for scanning a behavior of the motor vehicle; a memory for storing a predetermined behavior of the motor vehicle; and a processing device. The processing device is designed to assess an operability of the motor vehicle on the basis of a comparison of the scanned behavior with the predetermined behavior.
