Abstract: The disclosure relates to a computer-implemented method for authenticating an image sensor, a system, a computer-readable storage medium, and a motor vehicle. The method includes providing a camera for a motor vehicle that includes an image sensor. Subsequently, a first noise profile of the image sensor is ascertained and is stored on a data memory. The method also includes ascertaining a second noise profile of the image sensor. Subsequently, the first noise profile is compared to the second noise profile and the image sensor is authenticated if a predetermined correspondence is determined in comparing the first noise profile to the second noise profile.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method and a device for determining a valid lane marking (38 to 42; 56, 58) with the aid of a camera system (16) of a vehicle (12), in particular a road vehicle. With the aid of a camera (17) of the camera system (16) several pictures with an image of an area in front of the vehicle (12) are taken successively as a picture series and image data corresponding to the respective picture (30, 54, 66) are generated. The image data of at least a part of the pictures (30, 54, 66) of the picture series are processed, at least a first lane marking (38 to 42) and a second lane marking (56, 58) different from the first lane marking (38 to 42) being detected in at least one picture (30) of the picture series. A vehicle (34) driving ahead of the vehicle (12) is detected in at least two successively taken pictures (30, 54) and its position (P1 to P4) relative to the first lane marking (36 to 42) as well as its position (P1 to P4) relative to the second lane marking (56, 58) is determined.

Abstract: A method and a device for determining a valid lane marking using a vehicle camera system. A series of pictures are taken of an area in front of the vehicle. At least a first lane marking and a second lane marking different from the first lane marking are detected in corresponding image data. A vehicle driving ahead of the vehicle is detected in at least two successively taken pictures and its position relative to the first lane marking as well as its position relative to the second lane marking is determined. Dependent on the positions of the vehicle driving ahead determined with the aid of the pictures, one of the detected lane markings is selected as the valid lane marking.

Abstract: A circuit arrangement for measuring the diameters of metal bodies is provided which permits reliable and stable measurement of changes in diameter in a simple way. Measuring signals of relatively high accuracy are formed by compensating for environmental parameters such as ambient temperature and humidity. A dynamic reference signal which depends on the environmental parameters is formed for this purpose.
