Embodiment Construction

[0028] In the following, the term "automated motor vehicle" is used synonymously with partially automated motor vehicle, autonomous motor vehicle and partially autonomous motor vehicle.

[0029] The core idea of ​​the present invention is, inter alia, to provide such an environment sensing feature of the environment sensing device of an automated vehicle that at any point in time only the area relevant to the driving operation currently performed by the vehicle is sensed. The advantage here is that the automated driving function "knows exactly" where the vehicle will be moving at the next time, since this driving maneuver is fully planned and transmitted, for example in the form of trajectory data, to an actuating device of the vehicle, for example.

[0030] It is proposed that an interface is provided on the environment sensor, via which interface the known driving route data is read. With the aid of suitable calculation rules in the sensor, the environment sensing characteri...

Abstract

Disclosed is a sensor apparatus (100) for an automated vehicle (200), comprising: - at least one data interface (10); and an evaluation unit (20) to which route data (D) can be fed via the data interface (10), the route data (D) allowing environment sensing characteristics of the sensor apparatus to be controlled.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a sensor device for an automated vehicle. The invention also relates to a method for operating a sensor system for an automated vehicle. The invention also relates to a computer program product. Background technique [0002] Known environmental sensors for driver assistance systems such as lidar, video, radar have limited opening angles. Any increase in this opening angle is generally either not possible (due to eye safety regulations in the case of lidar, reduced resolution in the case of video, etc.) or entails additional costs. [0003] Today's sensors offer the possibility to control the field of view on a limited scale (e.g. by means of electronic "beamforming" in the case of radar, by means of changes in the scan in the case of lidar, by means of partial area in the case of video choice, etc.). Contents of the invention [0004] The object of the present invention is to provide a sensor device for an automated vehic...
