Abstract
A method for the spatially resolved detection of an object outside a transportation vehicle with the aid of a sensor installed in a transportation vehicle wherein the viewing direction of a transportation vehicle occupant is captured. The captured viewing direction is analyzed over a period and a region of interest outside the transportation vehicle is determined. The sensor is then spatially sensitized and/or oriented in the direction of the determined region of interest.
