  • Patent number: 11847918
    Abstract: A method for the communication of at least two users of a networked traffic system. A first user sends pieces of exchange information using a first signal transmission path, the pieces of exchange information including first sensor data of the first user and a code representing the first user. The first user sends the representative code or one further representative code using at least one second signal transmission path. A second user receives the pieces of exchange information via the first signal transmission path. The second user ascertains using a surroundings sensor system second sensor data by detecting surroundings. The second user receives using the surroundings sensor system the code sent via the second signal transmission path. The second user associates the first sensor data and the second sensor data with one another with the aid of the representative code and/or with the aid of the further representative code.

  • Publication number: 20220161827
    Abstract: A method for transferring a teleoperable vehicle from an initial operating mode to a target operating mode. In the method, upon request, a handover of the driving responsibility to an intended operator is planned and prepared. Areas of the driving responsibility and operating limits of the vehicle in the target operating mode are negotiated. The negotiated operating limits are set. The handover is initiated and brought to a successful conclusion in the target operating mode.
