A method for operating a partially autonomous motor vehicle, wherein in a non-parked state of the motor vehicle, sensor data of a sensor device, which detects at least one person in the surroundings of the motor vehicle, are analyzed with respect to a behavior of the person disadvantageously impairing the further driving operation of the motor vehicle and at least one action counteracting the behavior of the person is triggered in dependence on the analysis result.

Method for operating an at least partially autonomous motor vehicle and motor vehicle

The disclosure relates to a method for determining a driving instruction, whereby environmental data relevant to the surroundings of the motor vehicle is acquired by at least one detection device of a motor vehicle, after which, as a function of the environmental data, a driving instruction relevant to the driving operation of the motor vehicle is determined, which is specified by a gesture and/or a pose of a traffic controller mapped by the environmental data, wherein the determination of the driving instruction is carried out as a function of at least one set of training data, which was previously acquired by the detection device or a further detection device and which maps a further traffic controller and at least a traffic participant.

Method for determining a driving instruction

The present disclosure relates to a method for operating a motor vehicle, wherein a status information regarding the status of an occupant of the motor vehicle is determined, whereupon the motor vehicle is guided in a fully automated manner to a predetermined target position when one of the release conditions is fulfilled as a function of the status information, wherein, when the release condition is fulfilled, the motor vehicle is guided independently of at least one traffic rule, which restricts the driving operation of the motor vehicle in the event of non-compliance with the release condition, or dependently of a modified version of said traffic rule.

Method for operating a motor vehicle

This disclosure relates to a method for the driverless operation of a vehicle system of a motor vehicle designed for fully automatic control of the motor vehicle. In accordance with at least one sequential criterion, which evaluates a status of the driver, comprising location information describing the current position of the driver and/or comprising resource information describing an amount of a resource that is present or required for the driver, of which resource a supply is present in the motor vehicle, operating information describing the taking of the motor vehicle to a sequential position having a shorter, in particular minimum possible distance from the current position of the driver or from a predicted destination of the driver, is automatically determined and applied. A motor vehicle with an onboard vehicle system and a control device, for execution of the method, are also disclosed.

Data relating to at least the dynamic objects of the surrounding area is ascertained by sensors of at least one motor vehicle. The data is stored in a database provided by a motor vehicle, acting as a server for the surrounding area, which communicates with other motor vehicles. When a request message is received, the motor vehicle acting as a server transmits at least one part of environmental data in the database to the requesting motor vehicle and/or transmits a request message for transmitting environmental data, relating to the requested data about at least one object, to other motor vehicles to update the database and/or captures environmental data relating to the at least one object by other sensors. The database is updated to include the transmitted or captured environmental data.
