Abstract: A computer-implemented method is provided for automatically annotating sensor data frames of a spatial sensor and of an area sensor with a spatially overlapping measuring range. Received sensor data frames are initially independently annotated, a bounding box being assigned to each recognized object in the sensor data frame. The sensor data frames of the spatial sensor and the sensor data frames of the area sensor are grouped, based on a temporal correlation. The three-dimensional bounding box for an object is projected into the image plane of the area sensor. If a measure of quality for a match between the projected bounding box and the two-dimensional bounding box is above a predefined threshold value, the boxes are assigned to the same object, and this object is not further checked. Attributes of the object may be subsequently determined.
