Abstract: In a method for determining a source of danger on a roadway in a detection area in front of or behind a vehicle with the aid of a camera of the vehicle, an image of the detection area is captured with the aid of the camera, image data corresponding to the image are generated, a first image area of the image is determined with the aid of the image data using a neural network, which first image area corresponds to the roadway in the detection area, and a second image area of the image is determined with the aid of the first image area using the neural network, which second image area corresponds to the source of danger on the roadway in the detection area.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for detecting a parking area, in particular for a motor vehicle, having an image capturing device which generates image data of a surrounding area, which image data are evaluated in order to detect a parking area, wherein at least one marker or a plurality of markers of a parking area is or are detected by means of the image data and is or are evaluated and assigned to a parking area which is defined by the at least one marker, wherein, when a parking area is detected, an adjacent area expectation is determined which constitutes a hypothesis that the area adjacent to the detected parking area could also be a parking area, and that the hypothesis is taken into account during the detection of an adjacent parking area.
