Abstract: A method and apparatus for generating an image of vehicle surroundings are disclosed, including: capturing vehicle surroundings by vehicle cameras arranged on a vehicle body of a vehicle, and generating camera images by the cameras. The camera images of adjacent cameras have overlapping image regions), generating a virtual representation of the surroundings in a virtual three-dimensional space, during which the camera images are projected onto a virtual projection surface in the space. A non-stationary virtual camera in the virtual space determines a position and/or orientation thereof. A first selection region is placed on the surface in a first overlapping image region depending on a virtual camera field of vision, at least one image parameter of a first vehicle camera in the first selection region is calculated, and at least one second vehicle image parameter is adjusted to the at least one first vehicle image parameter in the first selection region.
