Abstract: The disclosure relates to a method for trajectory planning of a driver assistance system, particularly an assistance system for longitudinal and/or transverse control, in which a trajectory having a total duration which can be set is determined and the trajectory is divided into segments, wherein each segment has a variable segment duration and the total of the segment durations corresponds to the set total duration of the trajectory.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for trajectory planning of a driver assistance system, particularly an assistance system for longitudinal and/or transverse control, in which a trajectory (T1, T3-T7) having a total duration (te) which can be set is determined and the trajectory (T3, T5, T7) is divided into segments, wherein each segment has a variable segment duration (?t1, ?t2, ?t3) and the total of the segment durations (?t1, ?t2, ?t3) corresponds to the set total duration (te) of the trajectory (T3, T5, T7).

Abstract: A pedal system for a motor vehicle, such as an accelerator pedal system, includes an elastic coupling element, a control unit, a pedal lever, and an actuator. The elastic coupling element is operatively positioned between the pedal lever and the actuator, and has a relatively low stiffness. The control unit is configured to control the actuator. The elastic coupling element is configured to damp brief force and/or torque fluctuations occurring in, for example, the actuator, such that said force and/or torque fluctuations are not transmitted to the pedal lever. A spring deflection of the elastic coupling element, in a direction of force applied to the pedal lever, operates as a control variable for controlling the actuator. A method relates to controlling such a haptic accelerator pedal and a correspondingly configured control unit.
