Method for operating an automatically driven, driverless motor vehicle and monitoring system

Abstract

The invention relates to a method for operating an automatically driven, driverless motor vehicle (1), in particular a passenger vehicle, in which sensor data is evaluated with respect to the objects (17) to be taken into account during the route planning, said data being captured by the ambient sensors of the motor vehicle (1) which comprise at least one camera (6), said objects (17) can be classified according to at least one classifier evaluating the associated sensor data as an obstacle or no obstacle. When the object (17) can not be classified, or it can not be classified with sufficient reliability as an obstacle or not an obstacle and/or in the presence of at least one object (17) obstructing the continuation of a route of the motor vehicle (1) to a current target destination, at least one camera image (18) of the corresponding object (17) is captured by at least one of the at least one cameras (6), is transmitted to a mobile communication device (11) carried by a user (12) of the motor vehicle (1) and is represented on said device, and an input of the user (12) classifying the object (17) as an obstacle or not an obstacle is captured as classifying information, said classifying information being sent back to the motor vehicle (1) and is taken into account for the further automatic driving of the motor vehicle (1).

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for operating an automatically guided driverless motor vehicle, in particular a passenger vehicle, in which sensor data recorded by environmental sensors of the motor vehicle are taken into account in trajectory planning The evaluation is carried out on the part of an object, the environment sensor comprising at least one camera (6), which can be classified as an obstacle or a non-obstacle by means of at least one classifier which evaluates the associated sensor data. Furthermore, the invention relates to a monitoring system comprising a motor vehicle and a mobile communication device. Background technique [0002] The automation of vehicle operation for passenger cars and other motor vehicles used in road traffic is an increasingly present configuration. Driver assistance systems are thus known which can take over the parking process etc. for the driver. It has already been proposed in other fields that, for example...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

[0004] However, in many cases it is often not possible to determine whether the object is an obstacle

For example, it may occur that an object is not known in the classifier used and therefore cannot be assigned at all or with sufficient reliability

Problems can also occur when a type of "sensor error" occurs, such as an object that appears to be solid is not solid, or a color change that is not a three-dimensional object

This problem may arise in the prior art, since a general and unambiguous description of common objects is technically not yet fully represented by the environmental sensors of the motor vehicle
