A state of a vehicle, including a sensor for sensing another vehicle, is defined by determining a speed of the vehicle and determining the state in accordance with the sensing range of the sensor and the speed.

Determining a state of a vehicle and assisting a driver in driving the vehicle

A method for the decentralized coordination of driving maneuvers of at least two motorized transportation vehicles. A planned trajectory and a desired trajectory are transferred from a first motorized transportation vehicle to a second motorized transportation vehicle. In the second motorized transportation vehicle, a planned trajectory of the second motorized transportation vehicle is compared with the desired trajectory of the first motorized transportation vehicle. The planned trajectory of the second motorized transportation vehicle is adapted in response to satisfaction of adaptation criterion. The planned and desired trajectories of the first motorized transportation vehicle are combined with a strategic trajectory of the first motorized transportation vehicle. The planned trajectory and a desired trajectory of the second motorized transportation vehicle are combined with a strategic trajectory of the second motorized transportation vehicle. The planned trajectories of the first and second motorized transportation vehicles are collision-free with respect to one another.

Method and device for the decentralized coordination of driving maneuvers

Devices, systems, and methods for accelerating a vehicle in the case of a line start at a traffic light system can include determining a likelihood of a predefined vehicle being able to pass through the traffic light system during a current or imminent green phase, accelerating the vehicle in accordance with a signal from an electronic towbar system if the likelihood is higher than a predefined threshold value, and accelerating the vehicle to a lesser extent if the likelihood is lower than the predefined threshold value.

Apparatus and method for acceleration of a vehicle

A driver assistance system of a vehicle for controlling a distance from the vehicle to a further vehicle. In the method, a distance between the vehicle and the further vehicle and a relative speed between the vehicle and the further vehicle are determined. When the vehicle approaches the further vehicle, the vehicle is operated in an operational state from a group of a plurality of predetermined operational states in dependence upon the distance and the relative speed.
