Abstract
A method for checking the plausibility of detected features of a light distribution of a headlamp of a motor vehicle includes irradiating, by the headlamp, a scene in surroundings of the motor vehicle; capturing, by a camera of the motor vehicle, the irradiated scene in an image; dynamically seeking and identifying at least one initial optical feature in the image, adaptively producing and analyzing local surroundings of the at least one initial optical feature; dynamically extracting at least one further optical feature from the local surroundings; and carrying out, using a learned algorithm and on the basis of the at least one initial optical feature and the at least one further optical feature, an adaptive check as to whether the at least one initial optical feature and the at least one further optical feature are plausibly arranged in the local surroundings.
