  • Patent number: 11679767
    Abstract: A method for vehicle control. The method includes a step of reading in a camera signal, a step of executing a semantic segmentation, and a step of ascertaining a control signal. The camera signal represents an optically detected image of a roadway to be driven by a vehicle. In the step of executing, the semantic segmentation of the image represented by the camera signal is executed, to detect a free area ahead of the vehicle from the image as a drivable road section. In addition, a roadway signal representing the detected drivable road section is provided. In the step of ascertaining, the control signal for activating at least one vehicle component is ascertained, using the roadway signal.

  • Publication number: 20230005370
    Abstract: A method for exchanging pieces of maneuver information between vehicles. A parameterizable third-party trajectory planner provided by a third-party vehicle and mapping future pieces of maneuver information of the third-party vehicle are parameterized and executed in an ego vehicle, using at least one time parameter, to obtain at least one future third-party trajectory of the third-party vehicle.

  • Patent number: 11299144
    Abstract: A method for providing vehicle-trajectory information. The method includes a read-in task, in which at least one item of inertial information is read in that indicates at least one parameter of a movement of a vehicle during travel. In addition, the method includes an acquisition task, in which location information is acquired that indicates the position of the vehicle during the movement. In a last determination task, the vehicle-trajectory information is determined using the inertial information and the location information, the vehicle-trajectory information representing the movement of the vehicle at the position.

  • Publication number: 20170261325
    Abstract: A method for ascertaining the pose of a vehicle is described, in which the vehicle ascertains its own position and/or spatial orientation with the aid of information from its environment. In the process, the vehicle ascertains supplementary information about dynamic objects in its environment with the aid of environment sensors and uses the ascertained supplementary information for ascertaining its own position and/or spatial orientation.

  • Publication number: 20050125122
    Abstract: A method for coordinating a vehicle stability system with an external vehicle dynamics control system, the systems processing various controller variables. The systems may be coordinated particularly well when the vehicle dynamics control system transmits a controller variable to the vehicle stability system and a resulting variable is formed from the supplied controller variable and an own controller variable, the resulting variable being taken into account in a regulation of the vehicle stability system.
