Abstract
An object detection system, in particular for a motor vehicle, has multiple object detectors and/or operating modes with which different detection ranges and/or detection zones are detected. In this case, an object detector is preferably a radar sensor which has a relatively large detection range with a relatively small angular detection zone in a first operating mode and has a detection range that is small relative to the first with an enlarged angular detection zone in a second operating mode.
