It is provided that, when an imminent rollover is detected, at least one of the instantaneous status values and/or the warning message is/are transmitted to a central database, where it is/they are made available for other motor vehicles.

Method and device for operating a motor vehicle, motor vehicle

In a method for operating a vehicle, a location assigned to a driving route of the vehicle is transmitted from the vehicle to an external server, and the server checks whether a zone is assigned to the transmitted location for which navigation data exist for at least partially automated vehicle driving within the zone. The navigation data are transmitted from the server to the vehicle when such a zone is assigned to the transmitted location.

Method for operating a vehicle

A method for establishing a driving profile includes recording a value of an operating characteristic of a motor vehicle with the aid of a sensor situated in the motor vehicle at a first point in time, linking the value to a piece of location information indicating a position of the motor vehicle to obtain a linked piece of information, transferring the linked piece of information to a server, evaluating a plurality of linked pieces of information to ascertain a driving profile which includes location-dependent values of the operating characteristic, transferring the driving profile to the motor vehicle, and ascertaining a deviation between a value of the operating characteristic of the motor vehicle and a value of the operating characteristic included in the driving profile at a position of the motor vehicle at a second point in time.

Method for establishing a driving profile

A driver assistance system for motor vehicles, having a velocity regulation function for regulating the velocity of the subject vehicle to a nominal velocity, and having an adjacent-lane monitoring function, characterized by a turning assistance function which, when the velocity regulation function is active and an incoming signal indicates an imminent turning process that requires crossing an adjacent lane, monitors the traffic in the adjacent lane with the aid of the adjacent-lane monitoring function, and, as a function of locations and velocities of traffic participants in the adjacent lane, determines a spatial and temporal window for moving into the adjacent lane and adapts the nominal velocity to this window.

Driver assistance system for motor vehicles

A method is provided for ascertaining at least one road-related information item, including the following steps: A corresponding system is also provided, as well as a corresponding computer program.

A method for supplying a collision signal pertaining to a vehicle collision includes: generating a collision signal that represents at least one characteristic of a collision involving at least one crashed vehicle and position data of the collision, using collision-relevant sensor data of the crashed vehicle; and outputting the collision signal via an interface to a central collision data administration device.

Method and device for supplying a collision signal pertaining to a vehicle collision, a method and device for administering collision data pertaining to vehicle collisions, as well as a method and device for controlling at least one collision protection device of a vehicle

A method for operating a driver assistance system of a vehicle, includes providing and using data for making a decision as to whether or not the driver assistance system is to provide a driver assistance function, detecting a vehicle position when the driver assistance function is provided, and assigning the detected vehicle position to the used data to create a set of driver assistance system data. A device for operating a driver assistance system of a vehicle, as well as a vehicle system for a vehicle and a computer program are also described.

Method and device for operating a driver assistance system of a vehicle

A method for navigation by road users in the area of a traffic congestion, includes the steps of determining a group of road users in the area of the traffic congestion, who are users of a predetermined service, the capturing of travel data of the members of the group, the determining of driving maneuvers for the members of the group based on the captured driving data and the outputting the driving maneuvers to the associated members of the group. The driving maneuvers are coordinated with one another, in order to reduce the effects of the traffic congestion for the members of the group.

Method and device for cooperatively based navigation

A method, a corresponding device, and a corresponding computer program for monitoring a vehicle occupant, including the following: detecting multiple objects in the vehicle surroundings with the aid of a surroundings detection device, detecting a viewing direction of the vehicle occupant with the aid of a gaze detection device, and automatically associating the detected viewing direction with one of the detected objects with the aid of an association device for a determination regarding which object of the multiple objects the vehicle occupant has viewed.

Method and device for monitoring a vehicle occupant

A method for transmitting data in messages on a bus system where the messages are transmitted in transmission time slots at a certain transmission rate, the transmission rate within a transmission time slot being changeable in such a way that the message, allocated to this transmission time slot, may be transmitted repeatedly within this transmission time slot.

Method and device for transmitting data in messages on a bus system

A cyclical time-based communication system, for the transmission of data (DATA) between users, comprising a databus and users connected thereto. The data transmission occurs within cyclical repeating timeframes, each with at least two timeslots. Each timeslot is provided for the transmission of a message (Ni). A message (Ni) comprises at least part of the data (DATA) and each message (Ni) is provided with a code (ID). The bandwidth available for data transmission may be better utilized, if the code (ID) is placed within the message (Ni), each message (Ni) is additionally provided with time information concerning the timeslot which may be extracted from the code, and at least one of the timeslots may be used for transmission of various messages in various cycles. In a preferred embodiment the information relating to the current cycle comprises an ordinal number. In the simplest case the number has two values 0 and 1.

A method and device for transmitting communications on a bus system, as well as a bus system, is provided, in which the communications are transmitted in communication frames and the communication frames and the communications contain a security sequence. In the bus system, communications of various lengths can be transmitted, and for all of the communications to be transmitted in the bus system, a maximum length of a communication is provided. A first code is contained in the communication frame, by means of which the maximum length of the respective communication to be transmitted can be specified.

Bus system and method and device for transmitting communications on a bus system

A method and a device for exchanging data in messages between at least two stations connected by a bus system. The messages contain the data being transmitted by the stations over the bus system. Each message contains an identifier characterizing the data contained therein. Each station decides on the basis of the identifier whether to receive the message. The messages are controlled in time by a first station. The first station repeatedly transmits a reference message over the bus in at least one specifiable time interval. The time interval is subdivided into time windows of a specifiable length, the messages being transmitted in the time windows.
