AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

However, in known collision warning systems, collision warnings are generally only given for the vehicle as a whole
Due to such non-specific warnings, large evasive maneuvers and / or braking maneuvers are often triggered unnecessarily by the driver, since the driver cannot classify the risk of a collision

Embodiment Construction

[0024] exist figure 1 In FIG. 1 , a vehicle 1 is shown having a device according to the invention for protecting objects arranged outside the vehicle. In this example, the object arranged outside the vehicle is the right exterior mirror 2 . Vehicle 1 is located on lane 20 bounded by lane markings 21 . Vehicle 1 has a sensor system 3 . In this case, sensor system 3 includes in particular sensors for detecting obstacles 10 , such as ultrasonic sensors, radar sensors, laser sensors and / or camera sensors. In the illustrated situation, obstacle 10 is located on the edge of lane 20 in front of vehicle 1 . Furthermore, sensor system 3 has means for detecting vehicle data of vehicle 1 . In this case, in particular the steering movement, speed, acceleration and / or position of the vehicle 1 are ascertained as vehicle data. All data from the sensor system 3 are combined in an analysis unit (not shown). From the data, the driving motion 4 of the vehicle 1 is determined. In the case...

Abstract

The method involves detecting a position of an obstacle (10) in an environment of a vehicle (1) by a sensor system (3) when the obstacle is located at outside of a range of the sensor system. A movement (4) of the vehicle is determined by evaluating a steering angle, a velocity, acceleration and / or a position of the vehicle. A driving path (5) for an object i.e. outside mirror (2), arranged at outside of the vehicle is computed. A possible collision of the object with the obstacle is determined by adjusting the driving path with the position of the obstacle. The sensor system consists of ultrasonic, laser, radar and / or camera sensors. An independent claim is also included for a device for protecting an outside object of a vehicle.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a method for protecting objects mounted on the exterior of a vehicle, and to a device for protecting objects mounted on the exterior of a vehicle. Background technique [0002] It is generally known in modern vehicle technology that driver assistance systems are used by the driver of the vehicle for providing support when maneuvering the vehicle. In particular, driver assistance systems are known here which indicate to the driver possible collisions with objects in the vehicle surroundings. Thus, for example, systems with a distance measuring function are known when the vehicle is parked, which indicate to the driver, for example acoustically, the risk of a collision with an object in the direction of travel of the vehicle, especially when the vehicle is reversing. [0003] In addition to parking situations, driver assistance systems are also known which support the driver while the vehicle is in motion and warn the dr...
