Abstract
A method is provided for determining a pitch angle of a perception system of a vehicle with respect to a road surface on which the vehicle is located. Via the perception system, road perception information is detected from the road surface, and object perception information is detected from objects being different from the road surface. A primary pitch angle is determined by using the road perception information, and a relative pitch angle is determined by using the object perception information. The primary pitch angle and the relative pitch angle are combined in order to determine a final pitch angle of the perception system.
