    摘要: A method for adjusting a safety distance between a first vehicle and a second vehicle preceding the first vehicle at a bunched traffic site by at least one control device is disclosed which includes receiving measurement data of at least one sensor unit with the at least one control device. The method includes evaluating the measurement data of the at least one sensor unit with the at least one control device to identify a bunched traffic site in front of the second vehicle and identifying a safety distance of the first vehicle from the second vehicle, wherein the identified safety distance accounts for a possible reverse motion of the second vehicle. The method further includes establishing the identified safety distance with the at least one control device based upon the identified bunched traffic site. A control device, a computer program and a machine-readable storage medium are further disclosed.

    摘要: A method for trajectory planning for a commercial vehicle at a traffic junction, in particular including a traffic circle, by a control unit is provided. Trafficability of a lane of the commercial vehicle within a lane width of the traffic junction is checked prior to traveling into the traffic junction, traveling through a center of the traffic junction via an alternative trajectory is checked when normal negotiating of the traffic junction is not possible, and detection and/or prediction of surrounding traffic and trajectory planning of the alternative trajectory are carried out, taking the detected and/or predicted surrounding traffic into account. Moreover, a control unit, a computer program, and a machine-readable memory medium are provided.

    摘要: A method for the operation of a cleaning vehicle, in particular a street sweeper capable of being operated in automated fashion, by a control device. A trajectory is calculated and control commands are produced for a longitudinal guiding and transverse guiding of the cleaning vehicle during travel of the calculated trajectory. Measurement data are received from at least one sensor in order to ascertain a cleaning region. At least one actuator is controlled, based on the received measurement data, in order to position a cleaning device of the cleaning vehicle in the longitudinal direction and/or transverse direction relative to a direction of travel of the cleaning vehicle, in order to clean the cleaning region. A control device, a computer program, and a machine-readable storage medium are also described.

    摘要: A method for determining an emergency stop point for a motor vehicle includes steps of determining a driving state of the motor vehicle and determining an emergency stop point in the area of the motor vehicle on the basis of the driving state. The stop point is determined in such a way that a risk of stopping at the determined emergency stop point does not exceed a predetermined value.

    摘要: A method for operating an automated vehicle includes receiving environment data and determining and/or detecting a fire based on the environment data. The method further includes determining a distance of the fire from a road to be traveled by the vehicle and/or from a planned trajectory of the vehicle. The method further includes determining a danger level posed by the fire to the vehicle occupants based on the determined distance and providing an output signal for operating the vehicle based on the determined danger level.

    摘要: The approach presented here relates to a method for creating an optimized localization map for a vehicle. The method encompasses a step of furnishing at least one localization map that represents at least one position, read in by a vehicle reading-in unit, of a landmark. The method further encompasses a step of reading in a radar map via an interface, the radar map having or mapping at least one further position, furnished by way of radar measurement by a satellite, of the landmark in the radar map. Lastly, the method encompasses a step of generating and storing an optimized localization map using the localization map and the radar map, such that upon generation of the optimized localization map, the read-in position of the landmark is altered using the further position to yield a modified position of the landmark, and is stored in order to create the optimized localization map.
