  • Publication number: 20260103224
    Abstract: A method for controlling a vehicle includes determining a respective limit speed of a first type and/or a limit speed of a second type by multiple subsystems of the vehicle. A smallest limit speed is selected as a control parameter from a set of determined limit speeds of the first type and limit speeds of the second type. A speed of the vehicle is then controlled based on the control parameter selected in this way. A vehicle control system, a computer program and a computer-readable medium are also provided.

  • Publication number: 20250006020
    Abstract: A method for predicting an occupancy state of a passenger seat and for traffic management of passengers, includes determining an actual occupancy state of the passenger seat by using sensors, acquiring information associated with the future occupancy state of the passenger seat, determining prediction data relating to a future occupancy state of the passenger seat on the basis of the actual occupancy state and the associated information by using a data processing apparatus, and outputting the prediction data to passengers by using an output apparatus. A route guidance for passengers is determined on the basis of the prediction data, and the route guidance is output to passengers by using an output apparatus. A system for carrying out the method is also provided.
