  • Publication number: 20230211805
    Abstract: A method for at least partially automated driving of a motor vehicle includes the steps of: determining that a need exists for infrastructure-based, at least partially automated driving of the motor vehicle, and transmitting, via a communication network, a request to transmit a plurality of infrastructure data based on which the motor vehicle is drivable in an at least partially automated manner, in response to determining that a need exists for infrastructure-based, at least partially automated driving of the motor vehicle. Receiving, via the communication network, the infrastructure data in response to transmitting the request. Generating a plurality of control signals for at least partially automated controlling of a lateral and/or a longitudinal operation of the motor vehicle based on the infrastructure data, and outputting the generated control signals.

  • Publication number: 20210300238
    Abstract: A method for signaling a driverless operating state of a motor vehicle in which the motor vehicle is able to drive without a driver, and as long as the motor vehicle is operated in the driverless operating state, a ground of an environment of the motor vehicle is illuminated by an illumination light with the aid of an undercarriage illumination device of the motor vehicle in order to be able to signal to the environment that the motor vehicle is operated in the driverless state. A corresponding device and a corresponding motor vehicle are also described.

  • Patent number: 8862382
    Abstract: A method for collision monitoring for a motor vehicle, in which a surrounding area is monitored, including: providing a reference state for at least one first object situated in the surrounding area, as reference object in a first stop operation, the reference state including reference position data of the at least one first object; in a second stop operation, determining whether the motor vehicle has traveled a predefined minimum distance between the first and second stop operations, and/or whether a predefined minimum time has elapsed; if it is determined that the motor vehicle has traveled a distance that is greater than the predefined minimum distance between the first and second stop operations, and/or that a time that is greater than the predefined minimum time has elapsed, the reference state is updated with position data of at least one second object situated in the surrounding area, as reference object; if subsequent drive-off is intended, determining actual position data of the at least one second o

  • Patent number: 8543325
    Abstract: A method for collision monitoring for a motor vehicle, a predefined surrounding area being monitored. The method includes the steps of providing information on the position and direction of motion of at least one object located in the surrounding area, providing vehicle information which indicates at least one position of a vehicle component and/or a driver's intended driving direction, designating an object if it is ascertained based on the vehicle information that the object does not pose any collision risk for the motor vehicle, and signalizing a collision risk if it is recognized based on the information on position and direction of motion that a not-designated object is approaching the motor vehicle.

  • Publication number: 20130033371
    Abstract: A method for warning of an object in the surroundings of a vehicle. The method includes the following steps of detecting a position of the object in a detection region in the surroundings of the vehicle, the detection region being a region in the surroundings of the vehicle and being adjacent to a driving track region of the vehicle, the driving track region being a region through which the vehicle will drive, in particular within a predetermined time span, determining a motion of the object on the basis of multiple detected positions of the object, and signaling when a determination is made that the object in the detection region is moving.
