Abstract
A method is provided for tracking-based visibility range estimation for a vehicle, the method including a step of tracking an object detected in a first image at a first point in time and in a second image at a second point in time, a step of ascertaining a first object luminance of the object and a first distance to the object at the first point in time and also ascertaining a second object luminance of the object and a second distance to the object at the second point in time, and also a step of determining an atmospheric extinction coefficient using the first object luminance, the second object luminance, the first distance, and the second distance, the atmospheric extinction coefficient being in direct correlation to visibility range.
