Abstract
A hazard warning unit for a vehicle for detecting hazards and for warning about hazards is disclosed, which hazard warning unit has a plurality of sensing units for sensing measured values, and an analysis unit for analyzing the measured values. If a hazard is detected, a hazard message is transferred to a central server which can then communicate said hazard message to other vehicles. The hazard information can also be buffered by the server.

A hazard warning unit for a vehicle for detecting hazards and for warning about hazards, comprising:
- a sensing unit in the vehicle for sensing a measured value;
- an analysis unit for determining whether the sensed measured value corresponds to a hazard;
- and
- a communication unit for transferring information data about the hazard to a control center if the sensed measured value corresponds to the hazard.
A method for warning a plurality of vehicles about a hazard, the method comprising the steps:
- sensing of a measured value by a sensing unit in a first vehicle;
- determining whether the sensed measured value corresponds to a hazard;
- and
- transferring information data about the hazard to a control center if the sensed measured value corresponds to the hazard.
A computer program product which induces a processor to carry out the following steps:
- sensing of a measured value by a sensing unit in a first vehicle;
- determining whether the sensed measured value corresponds to a hazard;
- and
- transferring information data about the hazard to a control center if the sensed measured value corresponds to the hazard.
A computer-readable medium on which a computer program product is stored which induces a processor to carry out the following steps:
- sensing of a measured value by a sensing unit in a first vehicle;
- determining whether the sensed measured value corresponds to a hazard;
- and
- transferring information data about the hazard to a control center if the sensed measured value corresponds to the hazard.
