Technologies and techniques for providing an already generated trajectory of a first motor vehicle for at least one second motor vehicle, for future travel along the trajectory via an assistance system. The trajectory is generated by the first motor vehicle and is transmitted to an electronic computing device of the assistance system that is outside the motor vehicle, and in which at least one first parameter characterizing the first motor vehicle is also transmitted to the electronic computing device. The already generated trajectory is evaluated, taking the first characterizing parameter into account, and it is determined whether the trajectory is suitable for the second motor vehicle, and if the already generated trajectory is unsuitable for the second motor vehicle, the trajectory being adapted for the second motor vehicle, taking a second parameter characterizing the second vehicle into account.

Method for providing an already generated trajectory of a first motor vehicle for a second motor vehicle for future travel along the trajectory, computer program product and assistance system

Technologies and techniques for automatically parking a vehicle. A user input determined, relating to a defined parking position, and a parking data set is determined, relating to the defined parking position in response to the user input. The parking data set may include the position of a starting region for an automatic guidance of the vehicle to the defined parking position. Trajectory information is obtained for an automatic guidance of the vehicle from the starting region to the defined parking position. The trajectory information may include a plurality of odometry data items relating to the lateral and longitudinal guidance of the vehicle along the trajectory and image data-based surroundings data of a driving path of the trajectory. A related vehicle and corresponding computer program is further disclosed.

Technologies and techniques for operating a backup assistance system for a vehicle, wherein the backup assistance system enables travel in reverse along a previously travelled trajectory, wherein a maximum distance for the reverse travel along the previously travelled trajectory is determined and output using a control unit on the basis of an expected error for the reverse travel along the previously travelled trajectory, in which the expected error exceeds a predefined error threshold value.
