Abstract: In a method for the calibration of a yaw rate measurement in a motor vehicle, the motor vehicle features at least one device for determining the yaw rate, a camera system which is oriented in the forward direction, and, if applicable, a steering angle sensor or a lateral acceleration sensor. At least one initial calibration is carried out at a standstill and at least one second calibration is carried out when the motor vehicle is moving. The second calibration uses image data of the camera system, which detects the environment in front of the motor vehicle, to predict the course of the roadway lane on which the vehicle is driving, from which the yaw rate is estimated.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for the calibration of yaw rate measurement in a motor vehicle, wherein the motor vehicle features at least one device for determining the yaw rate, a camera system which is in the forward-position, and, if applicable, a steering angle sensor. At least one initial calibration is carried out at a standstill and at least one second calibration is carried out when the motor vehicle is moving.
