Abstract
A method combines a road sign recognition system and a lane detection system of a motor vehicle. The road sign recognition system generates road sign information from sensor data of a camera-based or video-based sensor system and the lane detection system generates lane course information from the sensor data. Meaning-indicating data for road signs are generated from the lane course information, and are used to check the plausibility of and/or to interpret the road sign information. Data indicating the course of the lane are generated from the road sign information, and are used to check the plausibility of and/or to interpret the lane course information.
