A method for detecting objects, wherein two images of a surrounding (1) are taken and a disparity image is determined by means of stereo image processing, wherein a depth map of the surrounding (1) is determined from the determined disparities, wherein a free space delimiting line (2) is identified, delimiting an unobstructed region of the surrounding (1), wherein outside and along the free space delimiting line (1) the depth card is segmented by segments (3) of a suitable width formed by pixels of the same or similar distance to an image plane, wherein a height of each segment (3) is estimated as part of an object (4.1 to 4.6) located outside of the unobstructed region in a way, such that each segment (3) is characterized by the two-dimensional position of the base (for example the distance and angle to the longitudinal axis of the vehicle) and the height thereof.

The opening of vehicle doors often leads to collisions with stationary obstacles that are not visible to the occupants or with moving obstacles that approach the vehicle without being noticed. Thus to avoid collisions when vehicle doors are opened, the aim of the invention is to take any modifications to the environmental situation of the vehicle as a result of a movement of the vehicle and the detected objects into consideration. This allows a collision of the vehicle doors with the objects to be reliably avoided. To achieve this, in a first step the portable trajectory of a vehicle is determnined. In an additional step, the objects in the vicinity of the vehicle are detected and probable trajectories of said detected objects are determined. Respective probability ranges are then defined both for the vehicle and the pivoting zone of the vehicle doors and for the detected objects. The probability ranges of the pivoting zones of the vehicle doors are respectively compared with the individual probability ranges of the objects, in order to determine whether they overlap. If an overlap is identified, a response; signal that indicates the risk of a collision is generated.

The first commercially-available driver assist systems required a compromise between the resolution of the scanning and the extent of the scanned region, according to application. Conventional video-based systems have a good compromise between resolution and recording range, however do not generally provide direct distance information. According to the new arrangement of the object of the invention, it is possible to achieve a system, which, on installation in a road vehicle, can record complex dynamic scenes, for example the lateral 3D geometry to the road edge from the point of view of the dynamically operating vehicle and use the same to advantage on parking. According to the invention, the monitoring and measuring of the lateral environment of a vehicle is displayed on the one hand by means of a camera with the digital images and on the other hand with a computer unit which serves to provide the images with a time stamp and to buffer the same. The movements of the vehicle are further recorded, in order to select image pairs from the buffered images, based on the above data. A local 3D depth image of the lateral environment of a vehicle can thus be generated by an algorithm for stereo image processing.

A camera based position recognition system for a road vehicle. The environment in the direction of travel of the vehicle is acquired by a camera. Using the acquired image data, the position of the vehicle in its environment is determined with regard to an optical signature identified in the obtained image data. For determining the position of the vehicle, use is made of the knowledge of the relationship between the environment coordinate system of the optical signature and that of the camera coordinate system. In simplified manner, position determination occurs with regard to the optical signature on the basis of a template matching imposed on the image data. For this, a template or an optical signature recorded in memory is superimposed on the optical signature identified in the image data in the environment of the vehicle (template matching). From the parameters of this template matching (for example linear compression and rotation parameters) recognizing the existing coordinate system, the position of the vehicle relative to the optical signature can be directly deduced.

Apparatus for automatic transverse vehicle guidance is provided for the automatic transverse guidance of a vehicle along a traffic lane. The apparatus can be activated in such a way using an activating actuation of an operating element that the actual transverse-position value present at the activation instant serves as a desired transverse-position value for subsequent automatic transverse guidance operation.

A device for steering and maintaining the course of a vehicle contains, in addition to a device for detecting the position of the vehicle, and a steering control device which acts on a steering angle adjustment device, a preselectable limitation of the steering angle setting requested by the control. A steering angle setting requested by the control is combined with the steering angle setting requested by the driver, and the steering angle adjustment device sets the steering angle in accordance with this combination.
摘要:
A method for environmental representation, in which two images of an environment (U) are taken respectively and a disparity image is determined by means of stereo image processing. An unobstructed free space (F) is identified in the disparity image, in that each pixel of the disparity image is allocated either to the unobstructed ground surface (B) or to one of several segments (S11 to Snu) depending on disparity values of the respective pixel. Segments (S11 to Snu) of the same width are formed from pixels of the same or similar distance to an image plane. An object (O1 to Ok) located outside of the free space (F) is modelled in the environment (U) using one segment (S11 to Snu) or several segments (S11 to Snu).

The present invention relates to a method for estimating the course of a lane of a motor vehicle, where the course of the lane is detected by detecting the trajectory of a vehicle traveling in front in the lane, where the detected course of the trajectory subjected to filtering in order to obtain the actual course of the trajectory, where the course of the trajectory is evaluated by means of at least two different filters, where movements of the vehicle in the lateral direction in the lane are filtered on the basis of the output of a filter, and where movements of the vehicle which correspond to a lane change are detected on the basis of the output of a further filter.
