Abstract
The invention provides a method for assisting in a parking operation for a motor vehicle () using a driver assistance system (). The driver assistance system () determines a parking path along which the motor vehicle () can be parked into a parking space () or driven out of the parking space (). Image data about surroundings (to) of the motor vehicle () are captured by at least one optical capture device (to) of the driver assistance system (). The image data are processed to produce an image () which shows a perspective view of at least one surrounding area () next to the motor vehicle (). The image () is displayed on a display device (). The image () is produced by taking account of a current position of the motor vehicle () on the calculated parking path. By way of example, a direction of view () and/or a field of view () from which the perspective view is shown can be set on the basis of the current position of the motor vehicle () on the parking path. The invention also provides a driver assistance system () and a motor vehicle ().
