Abstract
In a method for registering at least one damage event on a glass surface, particularly a windscreen of a motor vehicle, wherein at least one structure-borne sound signal is registered by a sensor device and the registered structure-borne sound signal is forwarded to at least one analysis unit, it is provided as essential to the invention that a first signal component of the registered structure-borne sound signal is analyzed, that further analysis is not begun until a first amplitude of the registered structure-borne sound signal has decayed, that the curve of the registered structure-borne sound signal is examined for the existence of signal jumps, and that conclusions may be drawn regarding at least one damage incident on the glass surface from the existend of at least one signal jump.
