A movement sensor for establishing a movement profile of a living being, in particular a human, is characterized in that the movement sensor has an arrangement for automatically changing between various operating modes.

Movement sensor and system for establishing a movement profile

A lane changing assistant for motor vehicles, having a speed control system and a surroundings sensor system for recording the traffic environment including the traffic in an adjacent lane, having a decision device for deciding whether a lane changing request of the driver is to be accepted, and having a command device for issuing an acceleration command to the speed control system in the case of a lane changing request, wherein a recognition device is developed to recognize a window for swinging into the adjacent lane without danger, in the light of the data of the surroundings sensor system; and the command device is developed to compute an acceleration strategy adjusted to the window, including a point in time for the beginning of the acceleration.

Lane changing assistant for motor vehicles

A method for distance alert for a vehicle, the distance of the vehicle to obstacles in the vehicle's surroundings being detected. The output of an alert depends on whether or not an obstacle is located in the vehicle's travel path. If there is no obstacle located in the travel path, then an alert is only output at a substantially smaller distance than would be the case when an obstacle is located in the travel path. The method is used for avoiding unnecessary alerts about obstacles.

A device for determining the ability of a vehicle to pass obstacles is used to estimate whether a vehicle is able to pass between obstacles on the basis of the vehicle height and/or vehicle width.
