  • Patent number: 11915489
    Abstract: In a method of operating a vehicle, sensor data comprising an object detection of a sensor of the vehicle is provided, the object detection being representative of a detected object. Further, a trust model is provided, wherein the trust model is configured to model a trust in object detection. Depending on the sensor data and the trust model, a trust value of the detected object is determined, the trust value of the detected object being representative of how high a trust in the detected object is. The vehicle is operated depending on the trust value of the detected object.

  • Patent number: 11361598
    Abstract: A method for monitoring a motor vehicle including an automated driving function, including differing modes of operation for bringing the motor vehicle to a standstill, at least one energy store, in particular a battery, supplying at least one consumer which is able to bring the vehicle to a standstill, a respective load profile being assigned to the respective mode of operation, which usually occurs in this mode of operation upon activation of the consumer, at least one characteristic variable of the energy store being predicted as a function of at least one of the load profiles, and the mode of operation associated with the load profile and/or the automated driving function being unblocked, blocked, left or influenced as a function of the predicted characteristic variable of the energy store.

  • Patent number: 11142217
    Abstract: A method for monitoring a motor vehicle having an automated driving function. Specific operating modes are each assigned, in each instance, at least one load profile, which is a function of the load circuit needed for the operating mode and normally occurs during this operating mode. At least one characteristic quantity of the energy store is predicted as a function of the load profile. The corresponding operating mode and/or the automated driving function is enabled as a function of the predicted characteristic quantity of the energy store. The predicted characteristic quantity is ascertained as a function of a base load and/or a switching-off potential of the load circuit not needed for the operating mode.
