The invention relates to a method and a device for fusion of measurements from various information sources (I, I, . . . , I m) in conjunction with filtering of a filter vector, wherein the information sources (I, I, . . . , I m) comprise one or more environment detection sensor(s) of an ego vehicle,

Method and device for fusion of measurements from different information sources

In a method for determining a depth map from stereo images, the disparity for a pixel is selected from a predefined quantity or set of predefined discrete disparity values that are distributed over the entire predefined disparity value range, whereby the distribution is non-uniform or has at least two different distances or intervals between different adjacent disparity values. This method makes it possible to more precisely determine (with finer resolution) especially only those disparities for which a more precise determination is required.

Method for determining depth maps from stereo images with improved depth resolution in a range

In a method for determining a depth map from stereo images, the disparity for a pixel is determined from a discrete quantity of predefined disparity values that are distributed over the entire predefined disparity value range. The distribution has at least two different distances between different pairs of adjacent disparity values. In this method, it is possible that only those disparities for which a more precise determination is required, will be more precisely calculated.
