Abstract
A method is provided for operating a driver assistance system, and a driver assistance system. The method includes the steps: determination of a current position of a pedestrian in an environment surrounding the vehicle; determination of a first current state of motion of the pedestrian; determination of a second current state of motion of the vehicle; calculation of a sojourn probability distribution of the pedestrian, the sojourn probability distribution being a function of time and of space and being based on a pedestrian motion model in connection with the determined current position of the pedestrian and the determined current state of motion of the pedestrian; calculation of a trajectory, based on the calculated sojourn probability distribution of the pedestrian and on the second current state of motion of the vehicle, having a minimum collision probability for the vehicle and the pedestrian; and operation of the driver assistance system of the vehicle based on the calculated trajectory.
