  • Patent number: 12570272
    Abstract: A method for controlling a device of a motor vehicle includes, in a first time step, receiving data characterizing a state of the vehicle and the environment, determining an initial vector on the basis of the data, selecting a first control profile on the basis of the initial vector, transmitting the first profile so as to control the device, and then, in a second time step, updating the data, determining an updated vector, selecting a second control profile on the basis of the updated vector, and if the second profile is different from the first profile, transmitting the second profile so as to update the control of the device of the vehicle.

  • Publication number: 20250027782
    Abstract: A method embedded in an ego motor vehicle determines the visibility of a point of interest. The method includes positioning the point of interest, the remaining planned route, and the coordinates of the current location of the vehicle in the three-dimensional map, representing the point of interest by a polygon having at least three vertices of given coordinates in three dimensions, representing, via an open broken line, the remaining planned route, by interconnecting points of change in orientation of the remaining planned route, tracing straight line segments having as first end points on the broken line, and as second end points on the polygon, determining the visibility of the point of interest from the first end of the segment, and determining an optimal visibility window.
