Method for detecting data, method for updating a scenario catalog, a device, a computer program and a machine-readable memory medium

A method for updating a scenario catalog, comprising:

• responsive to a detection of an event of a vehicle, obtaining all detected sensor data of the vehicle that, due to a previous saving of the detected sensor data, fills an entirety of a ring memory, wherein the ring memory is operated such that, after the ring memory is initially filled, each subsequent new data element of the detected data overwrites a respective earliest saved data element of the detected data that was previously saved in the ring memory, wherein the event is an occurrence of a manual intervention by a driver of the vehicle that overrules or alters an action carried out by the vehicle in an automated manner;
• ascertaining a probability of an occurrence of the detected event as a function of the obtained data;
• and
• updating the scenario catalog using the ascertained probability and the detected event.

A non-transitory machine readable memory medium on which is stored a computer program for detecting data of a vehicle operated at least partially in an automated manner, the vehicle including at least one sensor and a ring memory, wherein the computer program is executable by a processor and, when executed by the processor, causes the processor to perform the following:

• detecting data of the at least one sensor;
• saving the detected data in the ring memory, such that, after the ring memory is initially filled, each subsequent new data element of the detected data overwrites a respective earliest saved data element of the detected data that was previously saved in the ring memory;
• detecting an event, wherein the event is an occurrence of a manual intervention by a driver of the vehicle that overrules or alters an action carried out by the vehicle in an automated manner;
• and
• responsive to the detection of the event, transferring of all of the detected data that, due to the previous saving, fills an entirety of the ring memory at a point in time of the detected event.

A device for detecting data of a vehicle that is operated at least partially in an automated manner and that includes at least one sensor, the device comprising:

• a processor;
• and
• a ring memory, wherein the processor is configured to:
• obtain detected data of the at least one sensor;
• save the detected data in the ring memory, such that, after the ring memory is initially filled, each subsequent new data element of the detected data overwrites a respective earliest saved data element of the detected data that was previously saved in the ring memory;
• and
• in response to a detection of an event, transfer of all of the detected data that, due to the previous saving, fills an entirety of the ring memory at a point in time of the detected event, wherein the event is an occurrence of a manual intervention by a driver of the vehicle that overrules or alters an action carried out by the vehicle in an automated manner.
