Abstract
A method and a driver assistance system recognize the intention of a pedestrian to move on the basis of a sequence of images of a camera. The method includes detecting a pedestrian in at least one camera image. The method also includes selecting a camera image that is current at the time t and selecting a predefined selection pattern of previous camera images of the image sequence. The method further includes extracting the image region in which the pedestrian was detected in the selected camera images of the image sequence. The method also includes classifying the movement profile of the detected pedestrian on the basis of the plurality of extracted image regions. The method outputs the class that describes the movement intention determined from the camera images of the image sequence.
