  • Patent number: 10787169
    Abstract: A method for safeguarding a movement of a motor vehicle on an inclined ramp. Downhill from the motor vehicle, one or multiple collision object(s) is/are moved into a travel path specified by the ramp, so that in the event of a downhill movement of the motor vehicle on the travel path, a collision of the one or multiple collision object(s) with the motor vehicle reduces a speed of the motor vehicle while it is still on the ramp. Also described are a corresponding device, a parking facility, and a computer program.

  • Publication number: 20090103779
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method for multi-sensorial object detection, wherein sensor information is evaluated together from several different sensor signal flows having different sensor signal properties. For said evaluation, the at least two sensor signal flows are not adapted to each other and/or projected onto each other, but object hypotheses are generated in each of the at least two sensor signal flows and characteristics for at least one classifier are generated based of said object hypotheses. Said object hypotheses are subsequently evaluated by means of a classifier and are associated with one or more categories. At least two categories are identified and the object is associated with one of the two categories.

  • Publication number: 20090102858
    Abstract: Assistance systems are increasingly being used to assist vehicle drivers when driving their vehicles. To this end, a camera is used to record image data from the area surrounding a vehicle, and at least some of the image data (1) are shown on a display following object identification and image processing. After the image data have been recorded by the camera, they are processed using object identification in order to identify objects (2, 3) in the recorded image data. At least some of the objects (2, 3) which have been identified in this manner are highlighted when showing the image data (1) on the display. In this case, the identified objects (2, 3) are highlighted in such a manner that the image data (1) to be shown are divided into two types of regions. In this case, the first type of region comprises the objects (2, 3) which have been identified and are to be highlighted and a surrounding region (2a, 3a) which respectively directly adjoins the latter in a corresponding manner.
