Abstract
A method for estimating a direction of view of an occupant of a vehicle. The method includes a step of ascertaining a head fixation position of the head of the vehicle occupant, terminating a current head movement of the head, using sensor data concerning an angular speed of the current head movement, and a step of combining the head fixation position and a head movement gain parameter in order to estimate the direction of view of the vehicle occupant, the head movement gain parameter being a function of a specific human head movement pattern during a visual fixing of an object.
