Abstract
A method for analyzing an image recorded by a camera of a vehicle. The method includes a step of reading the image of the camera.

Furthermore, the method includes a step of transmitting the subsection and/or information about the subsection of the image to a driver assistance module. Finally, the method includes a step of using the subsection of the image and/or the information about the subsection of the image instead of the entire image in the driver assistance module, in order to analyze the image recorded by the camera.
