  • Patent number: 12283088
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method for determining a driving corridor for a motor vehicle (1). The motor vehicle (10) comprises at least one camera (22) and a control unit (24), the camera (24) being designed to generate images of a front region (30) in front of the motor vehicle (10) and to forward these images to the control unit (24). The control unit (24) comprises a machine learning module (28) having an artificial neural network. The method comprises the following steps: an image of the front region (30) in front of the motor vehicle (10) is obtained by the at least one camera (22); characteristic image features of the image are extracted by means of the artificial neural network; by means of the same artificial neural network, image points (32) which delimit the driving corridor of the motor vehicle (10) and/or at least one driving corridor adjacent to the driving corridor are determined on the basis of the extracted characteristic image features.

  • Patent number: 12275463
    Abstract: A steering gear for an electromechanical steering system for a vehicle includes an input shaft that can be coupled or connected to a steering column of the steering system, a segment shaft that can be coupled or connected to a steering column lever of the steering system, an angular gear, a servo gear, and an electric motor for driving the servo gear. The angular gear is designed as a bevel gear. The input shaft and the electric motor are connected to the servo gear. The servo gear is connected to the angular gear. The angular gear is connected to the segment shaft. The angular gear is formed to transmit torque from the servo gear to the segment shaft via two transmission paths.
