Abstract: Technologies and techniques for quality determination for a traffic system. First traffic parameter data is acquired from the traffic system, indicative of a parameter of the traffic system. Second traffic parameter data is acquired, indicative of another parameter of the traffic system, wherein the second traffic parameter data originate from a plurality of traffic participants. The parameter from the first traffic parameter data and second traffic parameter are obtained, wherein the parameter obtained from the first traffic parameter data is compared to the parameter obtained from the second traffic parameter data in order to determine the quality of the first traffic parameter data.

Abstract: Technologies and techniques for providing assistance to a motor vehicle during a process of exiting a lateral parking space. A device is configured with at least one surroundings sensor system and at least one control unit with an assigned memory to acquire successive values of distances from adjacent motor vehicles during a parking process and to store them in a map of the surroundings. The device may be designed in such a way that, before the start of the process of exiting a parking space, current values of distances from the adjacent motor vehicles are acquired and compared with the distance values stored in the map of the surroundings, wherein, when they correspond, a parking-space-exiting trajectory is made available by means of the map of the surroundings.

Abstract: According to a method for self-localization of a vehicle, a first pose of the vehicle is determined. Environment sensor data are generated by means of an environment sensor device and on the basis of this a landmark is detected in the environment. A position of the landmark is determined and in dependence on this a second pose of the vehicle is determined. A memorized assignment instruction is consulted, matching up the first pose with at last one preferred sensor type or at least one dominant landmark type, and depending on this a first portion of the environment sensor data is selected that was generated by means of a first environment sensor system of the environment sensor device configured according to a first sensor type. For the detecting of the landmark, a first landmark detection algorithm is applied to the first portion of the environment sensor data.

Abstract: The disclosure relates to a method for parking a vehicle in a first perpendicular parking space, wherein the position and/or the orientation of another vehicle is determined in the second perpendicular parking space and, depending thereupon, the target position and/or the target orientation of the vehicle in the first perpendicular parking space is determined, wherein by means of at least one optical detection unit of the vehicle, at least one image of the at least one other vehicle is generated before parking the vehicle in the first perpendicular parking space, and the image is evaluated as to whether a headlight or a taillight of the other vehicle is recognized in the image, and depending thereupon, the orientation of the other vehicle is determined.

Abstract: A method for determining a desired trajectory for a first road user for a route section. A process involves at least one trajectory that the at least one second road user has used to cover the route section being ascertained by one or more sensors. Then, a further process involves a piece of information about the at least one trajectory covered being transmitted to a computation unit. A process involves a desired trajectory for the first road user for covering the route section being ascertained, based on the at least one piece of information about the trajectory covered by the at least one second road user with the computation unit.

Abstract: A method for the automated driving of a motor vehicle which provides environment data, detects objects in the environment data, selects a current scenario by a scenario-interpretation apparatus on the basis of the detected objects, wherein a scenario has at least one elementary situation which is assigned at least one monitoring region and an enable criterion as attributes, and in addition successively for each of the elementary situations of the current scenario, estimates a destination point, plans a trajectory to the destination point by a maneuver-planning apparatus, interrogates information about a monitoring region from the environment-perception apparatus by the scenario-interpretation apparatus, checks for the presence of the at least one enable criterion by the scenario-interpretation apparatus, and if the at least one enable criterion is satisfied, automated driving along the trajectory as far as the destination point by a controller. Also disclosed is an associated device.

Abstract: An apparatus for determining a degree of shade for a parking position for a vehicle having a sensor device which determines an outside temperature and an interior temperature for the vehicle. The apparatus also includes an evaluation device which takes the outside temperature and the interior temperature as a basis for determining whether the vehicle is in a shaded or sunny parking position and a transmission device which sends information about the degree of shade for the parking position of the vehicle to a processing device.
