Abstract
The disclosure relates to a method for determining object information relating to an object in an environment of a vehicle having a camera. The method includes: capturing the environment with the camera from a first position; changing the position of the camera; capturing the environment with the camera from a second position; determining object information relating to an object by selecting at least one first pixel in the first image and at least one second pixel in the second image, by selecting the first pixel and the second pixel such that they are assigned to the same object point of the object, and determining object coordinates of the assigned object point by triangulation. Changing the position of the camera is brought about by controlling an active actuator system in the vehicle. The actuator system adjusts the camera by an adjustment distance without changing a driving condition of the vehicle.
