Method for supporting a driver of a motor vehicle

摘要

The method involves obtaining information whether relevant points (22a-22d) are occupied by an object e.g. road tunnel wall, or not in a surrounding of a motor vehicle (10). A free space object is assigned based on comparison of an object model with entity of points. A state vector is assigned to the space object based on information about temporal change of the object occupancy. Control commands are delivered to an actuator (18) based on future characteristics of the space object to perform intervention to guide the vehicle during driving or to deliver the commands to a warning device.
