Abstract: A control device and method for a vehicle with a light which is designed to illuminate an area in front of the vehicle, including an image capturing device, which is designed to capture image data for an area in front of the vehicle which is illuminated by the light in a switched-on state, and to output the image data, and including a calculation device, which is coupled to the image capturing device and is designed to calculate from the image data a light color that the light emits, and output it.

Abstract: A method, apparatus and computer program product are provided for preparing and installing update packages for compressed files. In the context of a method, a method for preparing an update package is provided that includes receiving an original file and a modified file, causing the original file and the modified file to be decompressed, and generating one or more delta files based on the decompressed original file and the decompressed modified file. A corresponding method for installing an update package is also provided that includes receiving the update package comprising one or more delta files corresponding to an original file, causing the original file to be decompressed, generating one or more modified subfiles based on the one or more delta files and the decompressed original file, and generating a compressed modified file by compressing the one or more modified subfiles.

Abstract: The invention relates to the verification of a detection of other road users of a vehicle, wherein the detection is carried out based on light sources in camera images. The verification is carried out by means of a distance calculation. In particular, a stereo camera can be used, wherein a pairing of light sources in the first image and a color check of the light sources in the first image can be carried out using a first image of the stereo camera. Likewise, a distance estimate of the object, which is assigned to the light sources, can take place. Independently of this, a three-dimensional position calculation of the object which contains the light sources can be performed with a second camera image of the stereo camera. Disparities can be used for this. These two distance values, the estimated distance value and the distance value of the three-dimensional position calculation can be compared, in order to establish whether the object may actually be a preceding vehicle.
