Abstract
A method for recognizing an object reflection in at least one image generated by a camera of a motor vehicle includes: recognizing at least one first object candidate in the image; identifying at least one first reflection indicator as a function of the first object candidate; evaluating the first reflection indicator to analyze whether the first object candidate is an object reflection; and outputting an evaluation signal as a function of the evaluation, the evaluation signal characterizing the first object candidate as at least one of an object reflection and an object.
