Method and device for folding in at least one side mirror of a vehicle

1. A method for folding in at least one side mirror of a vehicle, comprising:

reading in information about an obstacle avoidance maneuver of the vehicle; and

outputting a control signal for displacing the at least one side mirror in response to the information about the obstacle avoidance maneuver of the vehicle, wherein an extent of displacement of the at least one side mirror depends on a trajectory of the obstacle avoidance maneuver.

2. The method as recited in claim 1 , wherein data of a transverse movement of the vehicle in relation to a driving direction of the vehicle are read in as the information about the obstacle avoidance maneuver of the vehicle.

3. The method as recited in claim 2 , wherein the information about the obstacle avoidance maneuver of the vehicle is read in via an interface with an obstacle avoidance assistant of the vehicle configured to carry out the obstacle avoidance maneuver.

4. The method as recited in claim 1 , wherein data of a steering intervention carried out by a driver of the vehicle are also read in as the information about the obstacle avoidance maneuver of the vehicle.

5. The method as recited in claim 1 , wherein data from at least one surroundings sensors of the vehicle regarding an obstacle detected in the surroundings of the vehicle are read in as the information about the obstacle avoidance maneuver of the vehicle.

6. The method as recited in claim 3 , wherein data of the surroundings sensors are read in via an interface with a camera of the vehicle.

7. The method as recited in claim 1 , wherein:

data regarding a direction of the obstacle avoidance maneuver in relation to a driving direction of the vehicle are read in as the information about the obstacle avoidance maneuver of the vehicle; and

the control signal is output to a control device of the vehicle, the control device being configured to fold in a side mirror which is situated on a side of the vehicle facing away from a direction of the obstacle avoidance maneuver.

8. The method as recited in claim 1 , wherein the displacing displaces the side mirror from a starting position to a folded position, the method further comprising:

generating a reset signal in response to which the side mirror is returned to the starting position.

9. The method as recited in claim 8 , wherein the reset signal is generated after a termination of the obstacle avoidance maneuver.

10. A device for folding in at least one side mirror of a vehicle, comprising:

a reading-in device for reading in information about an obstacle avoidance maneuver of the vehicle; and

an output device for outputting a control signal to a control device of the vehicle for displacing the at least one side mirror in order to fold in the side mirror in response to the information about the obstacle avoidance maneuver of the vehicle, wherein an extent of folding of the side mirror depends on a trajectory of the obstacle avoidance maneuver.

11. The device as recited in claim 10 , wherein the displacing displaces the side mirror from a starting position to a folded position, and wherein the output device generates a reset signal in response to which the side mirror is returned to the starting position.

12. The device as recited in claim 11 , wherein the reset signal is generated after a termination of the obstacle avoidance maneuver.

13. A non-transitory, computer-readable data storage medium storing a computer program having program codes which, when executed on a computer, perform a method for folding in at least one side mirror of a vehicle, the method comprising:

reading in information about an obstacle avoidance maneuver of the vehicle; and

outputting a control signal for displacing the at least one side mirror in response to the information about the obstacle avoidance maneuver of the vehicle, wherein an extent of displacement of the at least one side mirror depends on a trajectory of the obstacle avoidance maneuver.

14. The non-transitory, computer-readable data storage medium as recited in claim 13 , wherein the displacing displaces the side mirror from a starting position to a folded position, the method further comprising:

generating a reset signal in response to which the side mirror is returned to the starting position.

15. The non-transitory, computer-readable data storage medium as recited in claim 14 , wherein the reset signal is generated after a termination of the obstacle avoidance maneuver.

16. A method for folding in at least one side mirror of a vehicle, comprising:

reading in information about an obstacle avoidance maneuver of the vehicle; and outputting a control signal for displacing the at least one side mirror in response to the

information about the obstacle avoidance maneuver of the vehicle, wherein:

data regarding a direction of the obstacle avoidance maneuver in relation to a driving direction of the vehicle are read in as the information about the obstacle avoidance maneuver of the vehicle, and

the control signal is output to a control device of the vehicle, the control device being configured to fold in a side mirror which is situated on a side of the vehicle facing away from a direction of the obstacle avoidance maneuver.

17. The method as recited in claim 16 , wherein data of a transverse movement of the vehicle in relation to a driving direction of the vehicle are read in as the information about the obstacle avoidance maneuver of the vehicle.

18. The method as recited in claim 16 , wherein data of a steering intervention carried out by a driver of the vehicle are also read in as the information about the obstacle avoidance maneuver of the vehicle.

19. The method as recited in claim 16 , wherein data from at least one surroundings sensors of the vehicle regarding an obstacle detected in the surroundings of the vehicle are read in as the information about the obstacle avoidance maneuver of the vehicle.

20. The method as recited in claim 19 , wherein data of the surroundings sensors are read in via an interface with a camera of the vehicle.
