Abstract: A method for operating a motor vehicle having a camera device that records the area ahead of the vehicle and an associated control device for evaluating images taken by the camera device, wherein the control device evaluates the images in order to detect at least one hand gesture performed by a person shown in the images, wherein, when a hand motion describing a calling gesture that indicates a stop request is detected, in the case of a self-driving motor vehicle, the motor vehicle is controlled to stop in the vicinity of the person, or in the case of a non-self-driving motor vehicle, the driver of the motor vehicle is given a signal indicating the stop request.

Abstract: A method for preparing a vehicle for at least one future drive. The vehicle has at least one electric energy storage unit, with which at least one electric machine is supplied with electric energy. The vehicle is assigned to a system, which has at least one electric charging station and at least one station for provided services. The vehicle is further assigned to the at least one station for provided services, with which at least one provided service is made available. The at least one electric energy storage unit is connected to the at least one electric charging station when the at least one provided service is made available, and, through the at least one electric charging station, is supplied with electric energy.

Abstract: A method for operating a charging device for a battery of a motor vehicle. The charging device converts electric power obtained from a motor vehicle-external, three-phase energy system supplying other consumers in an infrastructure unit, in particular a house, by a converter device into an electric current that is suitable for charging the battery, and supplies electric energy of the battery by the converter device into the energy system. The charging device receives in an operating phase phase-resolved power data, which is fed to the energy system and measured by a measuring device, and determines phase-specified target power while using phase-related power data outputs for each phase. The target power that is determined for each phase is retrieved from each phase.
