Abstract: An apparatus, in particular for simulating electrical sensor/actuator components, having a drive module (4), which provides a model (5, 6, 7) of the S/A component to be simulated and generates interface signals (U1n, Un) in accordance with the signals of the real S/A component to be simulated, and having a signal interface (12, 26) for each connection pin (28, 29) of the apparatus (1), which is driven by the real-time signals (8, 9, 10, 11) of the drive module (4) and generates, for each interface connection pin (28, 29), an interface signal (U1n, Un) corresponding to the electrical signals of the real S/A component, in which case the current direction or the energy flow of the interface signals (U1n, Un) can be directed, in a manner influenced by a control/regulation circuit of the signal interface (12, 26), towards the signal interface (12, 26) or away from the latter, with the result that the apparatus can optionally simulate a sensor or an actuator.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for correction of a signal of at least one sensor, on the basis of which a path curve can be determined, on which the vehicle is moving, with the vehicle having a device by means of which the environment of the vehicle can be identified, and with the correction of the signal of the at least one sensor being carried out in that, at at least one point in time, the object location expected at at least one further point in time of an object which is identified as being stationary is determined on the basis of the vehicle speed and of the signal of the at least one sensor, and in that, at the at least one further point in time, the object location of the object which is identified as being stationary is recorded, with a correction of the signal of the at least one sensor being carried out on the basis of the discrepancy between the expected object location and the recorded object location.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for correction of a signal which is derived from wheel rotation speed signals and represents the vehicle speed, wherein the vehicle has a device by means of which the environment of the vehicle can be identified, and wherein the correction of the signal which is derived from the wheel rotation speeds and represents the vehicle speed is carried out on the basis of the speed at which objects in the environment which are identified as being stationary move relative to the vehicle.
