Abstract
A method is described for avoiding or mitigating a collision of a vehicle with an obstacle in a traffic lane of the vehicle, if the obstacle is at least partially blocking a planned travel envelope of the vehicle, the method including a step of detecting and a step of adapting. In the step of detecting, a position and/or trajectory of the obstacle is detected. In the step of adapting, the travel envelope is adapted with the aid of the position and/or the trajectory, in order to avoid or mitigate the collision.

A method for one of avoiding and mitigating a collision of a vehicle with an obstacle in a traffic lane of the vehicle if the obstacle is at least partially blocking a planned travel envelope of the vehicle, the method comprising:
- detecting at least one of a position and a trajectory of the obstacle;
- and
- adapting the travel envelope with the aid of the at least one of the position and the trajectory in order to one of avoid and mitigate the collision.
A device for one of avoiding and mitigating a collision of a vehicle with an obstacle in a traffic lane of the vehicle if the obstacle is at least partially blocking a planned travel envelope of the vehicle, comprising:
- an arrangement for detecting at least one of a position and a trajectory of the obstacle;
- and
- an arrangement for adapting the travel envelope with the aid of the at least one of the position and the trajectory in order to one of avoid and mitigate the collision.
A computer program product having program code that when executed on a device implements a method for one of avoiding and mitigating a collision of a vehicle with an obstacle in a traffic lane of the vehicle if the obstacle is at least partially blocking a planned travel envelope of the vehicle, the method comprising:
- detecting at least one of a position and a trajectory of the obstacle;
- and
- adapting the travel envelope with the aid of the at least one of the position and the trajectory in order to one of avoid and mitigate the collision.
