Abstract
A method for determining a sensor degradation status of a first sensor system includes: providing data of the first sensor system to represent the environment; providing data of a second sensor system to represent the environment; determining an individual blindness indicator for the first sensor system on the basis of sensor data exclusively of the first sensor system; determining at least one first environment-related determination variable based on the provided data of the first sensor system; determining at least one second environment-related determination variable based on the provided data of the second sensor system; determining a fusion blindness indicator based on a comparison of the at least one first environment-related determination variable with the at least one second environment-related determination variable; and determining the sensor degradation status of the first sensor system based on of the individual blindness indicator and the fusion blindness indicator.
