  • Publication number: 20240157746
    Abstract: A method for operating a driver assistance system of a motor vehicle for assisting detection of objects in an environment of the motor vehicle. The motor vehicle is equipped with a height-adjustable chassis. During a driving maneuver, the height-adjustable chassis is set into a driving position in which an object can be detected at a regular distance from the motor vehicle. During a parking maneuver, the height-adjustable chassis is automatically set into a parking position in which an object can be detected at a smaller distance from the motor vehicle. A device that is configured to carry out the method, and a corresponding computer program, are also described.
