Abstract: A device for the automated longitudinal guidance of a motor vehicle is described. The device is configured to cause the motor vehicle to have a driving speed during convoy travel that is equal to or less than a convoy travel maximum speed. The device is also configured to detect a transition of the motor vehicle from convoy travel to free travel and, in response to the detection, to cause the driving speed of the motor vehicle to be reduced, during the transition from convoy travel to free travel, to a driving speed equal to or less than a free travel maximum speed, the free travel maximum speed being less than the convoy travel maximum speed.

Abstract: The invention relates to a device for carrying out a lateral guidance maneuver of a vehicle, in which at least the lateral guidance of the vehicle is effected in an automated manner. The device is configured to detect a maneuver speed and a threshold speed, which exceeds the maneuver speed, for carrying out the lateral guidance maneuver. The device is also configured to detect a speed request made by the driver of the vehicle for the longitudinal speed when carrying out the lateral guidance maneuver. Furthermore, the device is configured to adjust the longitudinal speed of the vehicle when carrying out the lateral guidance maneuver depending on the maneuver speed, the threshold speed and the speed request.

Abstract: A method for a driving automation system function for a motor vehicle includes capturing driving maneuver information; determining, on the basis of the driving maneuver information, a planned trajectory with a stopping location, at which the motor vehicle comes to a standstill according to the planned trajectory, wherein the planned trajectory with the stopping location describes a curvature; determining, on the basis of the curvature, a steering angle related to the stopping location; determining, on the basis of the steering angle, an adjusted trajectory with a reduced target steering angle compared to the steering angle; and outputting a control signal for controlling the driving automation system function to follow the adjusted trajectory.

Abstract: A method for operating a lane-change assistance system of a vehicle includes capturing ambient-field data that describe an environment of the vehicle. Further road-users are detected in the environment based on the ambient-field data. A route of a lane-change maneuver from an initial lane into a destination lane is planned, wherein lateral dynamics act on the vehicle during the lane-change maneuver. A traffic density describing a number, a distribution, and/or a motion of the further road-users in the environment is determined. The planned route of the lane-change maneuver is adapted as a function of the determined traffic density to vary the lateral dynamics during the lane-change maneuver.

Abstract: A control unit for a vehicle is configured to determine, during an approaching manoeuvre of a distance controller and/or cruise controller of the vehicle towards a vehicle in front, whether or not the vehicle will overtake or can overtake the vehicle in front during the approaching manoeuvre. Furthermore, during the approaching manoeuvre, the control unit is configured to adjust a behaviour of the cruise controller and/or adaptive cruise controller of the vehicle on the basis of the above determination.
