Motor vehicle movement values determination method in which sensors are placed at an angle to each other to enable movement determination along two orthogonal directions, while at the same time providing measurement redundancy

摘要

Device for measuring movement values of a motor vehicle for determining its travel state. The device comprises two sensors for detecting vehicle movement in two directions, one along the vehicle's longitudinal axis and the other at right angles to it. Both sensors can be placed with their axis of sensitivity at a slight angle to the vehicle's longitudinal axis or one sensor can be placed along it with the other at an angle to it. An Independent claim is made for a method for measuring movement values of a motor vehicle for determining its travel state.
