Embodiment Construction

[0019] Parts corresponding to each other in all figures have the same reference numerals.

[0020] FIG. 1 schematically shows a detail of an overall image G according to the prior art, which shows a vehicle F, its surroundings U and an object O1 in the form of a bird's-eye view.

[0021] A first image detection unit 1 is arranged on the front end of the vehicle F, and a second image detection unit 2 is arranged on the right side of the vehicle F, by means of which the first image detection unit and the second image detection unit can be The vehicle F and the surrounding environment U of the vehicle are detected. At the same time, the detection ranges of image detection units 1 and 2 at least partially overlap.

[0022] Image detection units 1 and 2 are preferably cameras each with a large detection range. In this case, in addition to conventional cameras, in particular omnidirectional cameras are also possible. Examples are mosaic-based cameras, swivel cameras, cameras with...

Abstract

The invention relates to a method for monitoring an environment (U) or a vehicle (F), wherein the environment (U) objects (O1, O2) present therein are registered by at least a first image capturing unit (1) and a second image capturing unit (2), the capture regions thereof overlapping at least partially and forming an overlapping region, wherein a total image (G) that shows the vehicle (F) and the environment thereof (U) from a bird's eye view is created from individual images captured by the image capturing units (1, 2) by means of an image processing unit. Depending on the determined positions of the objects (O1, O2) in the total image (G) between a first individual image region (EB1) and a second individual image region (EB2), there is a course of at least one border line (L1 to L3), extending from an origin to the image edge of the total image, such that the border line (L1 to L3) runs away from the objects (O1, O2).

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for monitoring the surroundings of a vehicle, wherein the surroundings and objects present in the surroundings are detected by means of at least a first image detection unit and a second image detection unit, the sum of the first image detection unit The detection ranges of the second image detection unit at least partially overlap and form an overlapping region, wherein an overall image is formed by the image processing unit from the individual images detected by means of the image detection unit, which shows the vehicle and the vehicle in the form of a bird's eye view. the surroundings of the vehicle. Background technique [0002] Vehicles for transporting goods or people are often characterized by large vehicle dimensions and / or a narrow field of view. It follows that maneuvering / driving such a vehicle is very difficult, especially for the driver. It is therefore advantageous to display the vehicle and its surroun...
