Method for operating a driver assistance system of a motor vehicle and motor vehicle
Systems and methods for operating a driver assistance system of a motor vehicle are provided, wherein the motor vehicle has at least one radar sensor which captures the environment of the motor vehicle. The radar sensor data is evaluated to form an environmental model describing the environment of the motor vehicle. If at least one query criterion is satisfied, an environmental map derived from the environmental model, and illustrating a top view of regions which can and cannot be travelled on is displayed on the display device. During an interaction between the driver and the displayed environmental map, trajectory data describing a desired trajectory of the driver is determined, and the motor vehicle is at least partially automatically guided along a real trajectory derived from the trajectory data.
1. A method for operating a driver assistance system of a motor vehicle, wherein the driver assistance system is designed to at least partially automatically guide the motor vehicle, and the motor vehicle has as least one radar sensor as an environment sensor, the method comprising:
capturing, by the at least one radar sensor, sensor data associated with an environment of the motor vehicle,
evaluating the sensor data to form an environmental model describing the environment of the motor vehicle,
responsive to at least one query criterion being satisfied, displaying, by a display device, an environmental map to the driver of the motor vehicle, the environmental map derived from the environmental model, the environmental map illustrating a top view of regions proximate to the motor vehicle,
during an interaction between the driver and the displayed environmental map, determining, trajectory data describing a desired trajectory of the driver, and
guiding the motor vehicle at least partially automatically along a real trajectory derived from the trajectory data,
wherein, the displayed environmental map is made possible by an operating device, and wherein the query criterion evaluates operating data that describes an operating state of the at least one environment sensor or the environmental model associated with an incomplete environmental detection relative to the determination of one or more candidate trajectories or output data of a trajectory determination unit for an adequately reliable determination of the one or more candidate trajectories.
2. The method according to claim 1 , wherein a touchscreen is used as the display device, or wherein components of a mobile device that is not part of the motor vehicle are used as the display device and the operating device.
3. The method according to claim 2 , wherein the environmental model is determined exclusively based on sensor data from the at least one radar sensor.
4. The method according to claim 1 , further comprising automatically determining the one or more candidate trajectories, and displaying the one or more candidate trajectories to the driver as marked selections on the environmental map.
5. The method according to claim 4 , wherein one representative candidate trajectory is determined, respectively, for different possible driving maneuvers or routes.
6. The method according to claim 4 , further comprising determining a criticality value for each candidate trajectory that describes the criticality of driving the trajectory, wherein the display of the candidate trajectories is a function of the criticality value.
7. The method according to any one of the claim 4 , wherein a candidate trajectory that the driver selected as the desired trajectory is visualized as distinct from the other candidate trajectory.
8. The method according to claim 1 , further comprising receiving, by the operating device, a route that is based on route data from a vehicle position that is visualized in the environmental map as trajectory data, wherein the desired trajectory is determined based on the route data.
9. The method according to claim 8 , further comprising assigning a trajectory that is described based on the route data while considering the environmental model to a desired driving maneuver or to a desired route, wherein the real trajectory is optimized in terms of safety and/or comfort.
10. A motor vehicle having at least one radar sensor and one driver assistance system with a control device, the motor vehicle configured to:
capture, by the at least one radar sensor, sensor data associated with an environment of the motor vehicle,
evaluate the sensor data to form an environmental model describing the environment of the motor vehicle,
responsive to at least one query criterion being satisfied, display, by a display device, an environmental map to the driver of the motor vehicle, the environmental map derived from the environmental model, the environmental map illustrating a top view of regions proximate the motor vehicle,
during an interaction between the driver and the displayed environmental map, determine, trajectory data describing a desired trajectory of the driver, and
guide the motor vehicle at least partially automatically along a real trajectory derived from the trajectory data,
wherein, the displayed environmental map is made possible by an operating device, and wherein the query criterion evaluates operating data that describes an operating state of the at least one environment sensor or the environmental model for an incomplete environmental detection relative to the determination of one or more candidate trajectories or output data of a trajectory determination unit for an adequately reliable determination of the one or more candidate trajectories.
