    Abstract: A method for determining a safety-critical yawing motion of a vehicle includes comparing a specification signal representing an ascertained setpoint yaw rate of the vehicle for an anticipated trajectory of the vehicle to a measuring signal representing an instantaneous yaw rate of the vehicle measured based on an actual trajectory of the vehicle, thereby generating a comparison signal; checking whether an amplitude of the comparison signal exceeds a first threshold value and whether a frequency of the comparison signal exceeds a second threshold value; and, in response to the amplitude exceeding the first threshold and the frequency exceeding the second threshold, outputting a yawing-motion signal indicating presence of the safety-critical yawing motion of the vehicle.

    Abstract: A method for situation-related steering assistance in a lane keeping assistant for a vehicle includes: importing a collision signal; ascertaining a correction signal for adapting an intervention torque for the lane keeping assistant, in order to provide a situation-related steering assistance in the lane keeping assistant. The collision signal represents information about a risk of collision during a lane change, and the correction signal is ascertained using the collision signal.

    Abstract: A method for classifying measuring points of a point cloud ascertained by at least one sensor, in particular, a point cloud ascertained from a LIDAR sensor, a radar sensor and/or a camera sensor, via a control unit. Local surface vectors to adjacent measuring points are ascertained for each measuring point of the point cloud. For each local surface vector, respectively one angle is calculated between the local surface vectors with respect to a gravity vector. A maximal surface vector having a maximal angle with respect to the gravity vector and a standardized surface vector are ascertained for each measuring point of the point cloud based on the calculated angles. Each measuring point of the point cloud includes a standardized surface vector and/or includes a maximal surface vector having an angle with respect to the gravity vector above a limiting value being classified as a non-ground point.

    Abstract: A method and to a device for processing a 3D point cloud representing surroundings, which is generated by a sensor. Initially, starting cells are identified based on ascertained starting ground points within the 3D point cloud which meet at least one predefined ground point criterion with respect to a reference plane divided into cells. Thereafter, cell planes are ascertained for the respective starting cells of the reference plane. Thereafter, estimated cell planes and ground points are ascertained for candidate cells deviating from the starting cells based on the cell planes of the starting cells, which are subsequently converted into final cell planes. As a result of such a cell growth originating from the starting cells, the cells of the reference plane are iteratively run through and processed so that the 3D point cloud is reliably classifiable into ground points and object points based on this method.

    Abstract: A method for range determination for a LIDAR sensor. The method includes: receiving measured values of a LIDAR sensor organized in a point cloud, and each including pieces of directional information and radial distance information relative to the LIDAR sensor and representing a laser beam reflected from the particular direction and at the particular radial distance; assigning the measured values based on the pieces of directional and radial distance information to areas of interest of a field of view; ascertaining a maximum distance range as an area of interest including a maximum radial distance to the LIDAR sensor and a point distribution of measured values of the area of interest, which includes a variance which reaches or exceeds a predetermined limiting value; and providing a value of the radial distance of the maximum distance range to the LIDAR sensor as the maximum range of the LIDAR sensor.
