Abstract: The invention relates to a method for providing an environmental image of an environment of a mobile apparatus, comprising the following steps: Receiving and/or recording environmental data using an input apparatus, wherein the environmental data image the environment and comprise information on static objects and/or dynamic objects in the environment, executing the following steps for a current and for at least one future point in time by means of an estimating apparatus: estimating a state probability distribution for at least one of the static objects and/or dynamic objects based on the received and/or recorded environmental data, creating a risk potential field map of the environment based on the estimated state probability distribution of the at least one static object and/or dynamic object, wherein this is done taking into account at least one potential risk enhancement, and combining the risk potential field maps into a risk potential field map sequence, and outputting the risk potential field map sequ

Abstract: A method for providing data for a first trajectory and a second trajectory where trajectory data relating to the first and second trajectories are captured. Trajectory database data are generated for the first and second trajectories based on the captured trajectory data, and the trajectory database data are stored in a non-volatile way. A trajectory comparison of the first and second trajectories is carried out based on the captured trajectory data, and at least one common section is determined during the trajectory comparison based on the first and second trajectories. The common section is stored as a common data structure for the first and second trajectories. Also disclosed is a system for providing data for a first trajectory and a second trajectory having a trajectory capture unit, a computing unit, and a memory unit.

Abstract: A method and an apparatus for transitioning a motor vehicle from a manual operating mode to an automated or assisting operating mode for driving along a saved trajectory including a memory, in which the trajectory and a tolerance region of the trajectory are saved; a mechanism for ascertaining the location of the motor vehicle relative to the saved trajectory; and a control unit, wherein the control unit is configured so that, if a predetermined criterion is met, a transition trajectory from a current instantaneous position to the saved trajectory is calculated and a steering torque is generated that steers the motor vehicle in the direction of the calculated transition trajectory, wherein the at least one criterion is a distance threshold value with respect to the saved trajectory, wherein the distance threshold value is selected so it is outside the tolerance region.
