Abstract

A method for supporting an attentiveness and/or driving readiness of a driver during automated driving operation of a vehicle, including computing a failure probability value using at least one read-in map information signal, environmental condition signal, and/or probability signal. The failure probability value represents a failure probability of a driver assistance system for performing an automated driving operation. The probability signal represents an error probability and/or failure probability of at least one vehicle sensor of the driver assistance system. The method also includes determining a comparison parameter in response to the computed failure probability value, the comparison parameter representing the result of a comparison of an extent of a necessary driving requirement on the traveled travel route of the vehicle to a degree of instantaneous driver attentiveness. The method also includes providing an advance warning signal in response to the determined comparison parameter.
