Abstract

A method for obstacle identification for a vehicle. In order to provide means for reliable obstacle identification for a vehicle, the method includes: performing a first obstacle search with a radar sensor using a radio frequency signal; performing a second obstacle search with a night vision camera; and identifying an obstacle if a first detection of the first obstacle search corresponds to a second detection of the second obstacle search, wherein a reliability of the first detection is assessed and if the reliability is above a first threshold, the obstacle is identified independently of the second obstacle search.
