A control system () is suitable for use in one's own motor vehicle () and is set up and intended to determine the current driving situation of one's own motor vehicle () and other motor vehicles () in the surroundings of one's own motor vehicle () by means of a surroundings sensor system and to assign the other motor vehicles () to specific movement paths or not. The control system is set up and intended based on the surroundings data provided to determine at least one path property for a future movement path of one's own motor vehicle (), based on the surroundings data provided for every other motor vehicle () in the surroundings of one's own motor vehicle () and in relation to at least two reference points of the respective other motor vehicle () to determine a state vector, to transform the respectively determined state vector for each of the other motor vehicles () into path coordinates and based on the at least one path property for one's own motor vehicle () and, to determine based on the respective transformed state vector, a probability distribution of a position of each of the other motor vehicles () corresponding to each of the at least two reference points of the respective other motor vehicle ().

Control system and control method for path assignment of traffic objects

The present invention describes a control system, which is adapted and determined to identify motor vehicles driving in front. The control system is at least adapted and determined to capture other motor vehicles participating in the traffic ahead of the own motor vehicle with the at least one environmental sensor. The control system is at least adapted and determined to determine a respective position of the other motor vehicles with the at least one environmental sensor. The control system is at least adapted and determined to determine a trajectory of the own motor vehicle from a current speed and a current yaw rate of the own motor vehicle. The control system is at least adapted and determined to select a single motor vehicle from the other motor vehicles that has the shortest distance to the trajectory, in order to follow this single motor vehicle with the own motor vehicle.

Control system and control method for selecting and tracking a motor vehicle

Control system, which is adapted and determined for use in a motor vehicle to identify road boundaries and/or road markings based on environmental data obtained by at least one environmental sensor associated with the motor vehicle. The at least one environmental sensor is adapted to provide the environmental data, which reproduces the area in front of the motor vehicle, to an electronic control of the control system. The control system is at least adapted and determined to capture road boundaries and/or road markings with the at least one environmental sensor. A respective trajectory is determined from the captured road boundaries and/or road markings. Pairs are formed from the determined trajectories, wherein a pair comprises two trajectories respectively. Sampling points are determined at predetermined distances for each pair of first and second trajectories. Distances perpendicular to a course of the first trajectory are determined from the determined sampling points to the second trajectory and a length of a section is calculated along the course of the first trajectory, for which length the determined distances are within a predetermined value range, and/or distances perpendicular to a course of the second trajectory are determined from the determined sampling points to the first trajectory, and a length of a section is calculated along the course of the second trajectory, for which length the determined distances are within the predetermined value range. A set of pairs of trajectories is selected based on a criterion for pairing to determine at least one lane and/or at least one trajectory for the motor vehicle based on this set.

Control system and control method for determining a lane

The present invention describes a control system, which is adapted and determined to identify motor vehicles driving in front. The control system is at least adapted and determined to detect another motor vehicle participating in the traffic with the at least one environmental sensor. The control system is at least adapted and determined to determine positions of the other motor vehicle for a predetermined time interval. The control system is at least adapted and determined to determine at the end of the time interval whether
