Abstract
A method for creating an environment map for a processing unit, which moves independently within an environment, wherein a detection device detects environmental features and/or objects within the environment, and wherein position data of the environmental features and/or objects are processed by an evaluation device into an environment map. In order to achieve intuitive user-processing unit interaction, the detected environmental features and/or objects are processed via 3D reconstruction into a photo-realistic, three-dimensional environment card.
