Abstract

A method for determining sensor errors and/or localization errors of a vehicle, including: recording a vehicle environment of an ego vehicle by means of at least one environment perception sensor of the ego vehicle; generating an environment representation based on the recording by the environment perception sensor; analyzing the environment representation in the ego vehicle by means of an analysis unit; determining environment information based on the analysis of the environment representation; entering the environment information in an environment model; determining at least one further vehicle in the environment representation from the at least one environment perception sensor of the ego vehicle; transmitting information from the at least one further vehicle to the ego vehicle by means of a vehicle-to-vehicle communication unit; comparing the transmitted information with the environment information from the ego vehicle; determining a sensor error and/or localization error based on the result of the comparison of the transmitted information and the environment information from the ego vehicle.
