A method for determining video segments to be transferred of a video, which is recorded in a vehicle using a camera. The method including, for one or for each of multiple video segments of the videos recorded in the vehicle, analyzing the one or one of each of the multiple video segments with respect to its respective content, generating data, which include pieces of information relating to the respective content of a respective video segment, conveying the data to an extra-vehicular processing system, receiving pieces of information about one or about multiple video segments to be transferred from the extra-vehicular processing system and transferring the one or the multiple video segments to be transferred to the extra-vehicular processing system. A method carried out in the processing system, a camera system, and a processing system are also described.

In spacious areas or building complexes, it is customary to use monitoring systems that comprise monitoring cameras and other monitoring sensors that record monitoring data and forward said monitoring data to a monitoring control centre or the like for the purpose of evaluation. Depending on the size of the monitored area, the complexity of the monitoring system can increase to a great extent. Upwards of a certain size of monitoring area, it is necessary for several monitoring persons also to be employed in parallel in order to inspect the monitoring data. A monitoring installationfor a monitoring area B having a plurality of monitoring stationsfor usersof the monitoring installation, wherein the monitoring installationis designed to assign a respective user ID ID_, ID_, ID_, ID_to the usersof the monitoring installation, wherein the monitoring stationseach have a display device, wherein the monitoring stationsare designed to present a user interfacefor the monitoring installationhaving a modelof the monitoring areaon the display device, and having a collaboration device, wherein the collaboration deviceis designed to show a first of the user IDs ID_6from a first monitoring stationtogether with an associated piece of user information as collaboration data with the modelon the user interfaceof at least one second monitoring station, is proposed.

Monitoring installation for a monitoring area, method and computer program

A method for controlling a motor vehicle includes steps of scanning an environment of the motor vehicle, controlling the motor vehicle as a function of the scanned information, ascertaining a driving situation of the motor vehicle, and of activating, deactivating or parameterizing a protective function of the motor vehicle as a function of the ascertained driving situation.

Controlling a motor vehicle

A method for detecting objects on a parking area for vehicles with the aid of image processing of images from at least two imaging sensors, detection ranges of the imaging sensors overlapping at least partially. The images of an imaging sensor whose image quality is limited by environmental conditions are weighted less strongly for the detection of objects on the parking area during image processing than images of an imaging sensor whose image quality is not limited by environmental conditions. A processing unit, a program, and an overall system for carrying out the method are also described.
