Abstract: To enable a user who is moving through or past a scene, e.g., along a path through a landscape or surrounding environment, and who wishes to record an image thereof, and to acquire or keep images of interest to the user without separate actuations or handling of the named type, a system is provided for producing at least one image of the scene, having at least one device for recording the at least one image, a device for acquiring a behavior of at least one user, a control unit for evaluating the behavior of the at least one user and for obtaining therefrom at least one control signal for a controlling of the device, including a selection of a recording direction and of image segments or objects that are to be recorded, for recording the at least one image in accordance with the behavior of the at least one user.

Abstract: A method for recognizing road signs in the vicinity of a vehicle and for synchronization thereof to road sign information from a digital map where, in the case of a recognition of road signs, road-sign recognition data are generated, navigation data being provided for localizing the vehicle in digital map data, and the road-sign recognition data being synchronized to the map data. To be able to provide unambiguous and the most accurate possible and thus improved road sign information to be output to the driver in the context of such a method, in the case of a discrepancy between the map data and the road-sign recognition data, the decision is made with the aid of reliability factors for the camera and map as to whether the data from the digital map or the road-sign recognition data are output in the vehicle.
