Abstract
A method for monitoring vehicle surroundings, including: reading in first and second surrounding-area information-items respectively with first and second detectors. The first and second surrounding-area information-items represent information items receivable from the vehicle surroundings and is about at least one object in the surroundings; processing the first surrounding-area information-item with the first detector, to provide first sensor-data, and processing the second surrounding-area information-item with the second detector, to provide second sensor-data; merging the first sensor-data and the second sensor-data, using a time-difference information item, to provide a measuring-signal. The time-difference information item represents a time-difference between a first latency-time, which is needed by the first detector for the processing, up to the provision of the first sensor-data, and a second latency-time, which is needed by the second detector for the processing, up to the provision of the second sensor-data. The measuring signal represents monitored surroundings of the vehicle.
