Abstract

A method for operating an automated vehicle. The method includes: detecting surroundings of the vehicle; providing surroundings data of the detected surroundings; supplying the surroundings data to a situation detection unit including a defined number greater than one of situation detection elements; computationally modeling the surroundings of the vehicle with the aid of the situation detection elements; activating driver assistance systems using output data of the models of the situation detection elements; deciding, with the aid of a decision-making unit, which output data of the models of the situation detection elements are used for activating an actuator unit of the vehicle; and activating the actuator unit of the vehicle using the decided-upon output data.
