  • Publication number: 20230053423
    Abstract: A method for operating a vehicle includes detecting a road user in a predetermined portion of a vehicle's environment, detecting a start-up attempt by vehicle driver, blocking a vehicle start-up in response to the detection of a road user in the vehicle's environment and to the detected start-up attempt, and altering a vehicle control such that the comfort of the driver is reduced in comparison with an unaltered vehicle control when the vehicle start-up has been blocked.

  • Patent number: 11281547
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to an assembly including a first processor having a first core, a second core and a controller, and a second processor having a first core, and wherein the first core and the second core of the first processor, and the first core of the second processor are configured to execute a first procedure. The controller of the first processor is configured to compare a first result from executing the first procedure on the first core of the first processor with a second result from executing the first procedure on the second core of the first processor; and comparing each of the first and second results with a third result from executing the first procedure on the first core of the second processor, if the first and second results differ from one another.

  • Publication number: 20210146938
    Abstract: The invention provides a device for controlling a vehicle module based on a status signal of a power processor that acquires and evaluates sensor signals. Based on the status signal of the power processor, the vehicle module is controlled with either the power processor or a fallback processor. The fallback processor enables an emergency operation of the vehicle module. Furthermore, a device for controlling a vehicle module with a safety processor is provided, via which the vehicle module is controlled with sensor signals evaluated by either the first or second power processor, based on a state of a first and second power processor. A driver assistance system process is also provided, in which one of the devices according to the invention is used.
