  • Patent number: 10477102
    Abstract: A driver assistance system (1) for a vehicle includes environment sensors (2), which sense a vehicle environment of the vehicle, and a data processing unit (4), which evaluates sensor data of the environment sensors (2) to detect obstacles (H) in the vehicle environment. In accordance with detected obstacles (H), concealed regions (VB) in the vehicle environment of the vehicle are determined, which concealed regions are concealed by the obstacles (H) and restrict a field of view (FOV) of optical environment sensors (2) of the driver assistance system (1).
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 10434945
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method and a device for displaying an image of the surroundings of a combination of two vehicles that are coupled to one another. According to the invention, image data is sensed by sensors on both of the combined vehicles. Taking into account the three-dimensional position of the vehicles relative to one another, the image data is then combined so as to obtain a common image of the surroundings. The obtained common image of the surroundings allows a driver/operator to efficiently and safely perceive the surroundings around the entire vehicle combination.
