Abstract

A method, a computer program code, an apparatus for processing environmental data of an environment of a vehicle, a driver assistance system, which makes use of such a method or apparatus, and an autonomous or semi-autonomous vehicle comprising such a driver assistance system. Depth data of the environment of the vehicle is received from at least one depth sensor of the vehicle. Furthermore, thermal data of the environment of the vehicle is received from at least one thermal sensor of the vehicle. The depth data and the thermal data are then fused to generate fused environmental data.
