Method and device for ascertaining an image of the surroundings of a vehicle

A method for detecting an object in surroundings of a vehicle, the method comprising:

• reading in an image;
• and
• evaluating the read-in image using at least one pattern recognition algorithm to identify the object in the surroundings of the vehicle;
• wherein the image is of surroundings of a vehicle, and wherein the image is ascertained by performing the following:
• reading in first image data and at least second image data, the first image data representing image data of a first image recording area of a camera in or on a vehicle and the second image data representing image data from a second image recording area of the camera, which differs from the first image recording area, and the second image data having been recorded chronologically after the first image data;
• processing the second image data using a vehicle parameter and/or driving parameter to obtain processed second image data;
• and
• combining the first image data with the processed second image data to obtain the image of the surroundings of the vehicle.

A device for ascertaining an image of surroundings of a vehicle, comprising:

• an image ascertain device to ascertain the image by performing the following:
• reading in first image data and at least second image data, the first image data representing image data of a first image recording area of a camera in or on a vehicle and the second image data representing image data from a second image recording area of the camera, which differs from the first image recording area, and the second image data having been recorded chronologically after the first image data;
• processing the second image data using a vehicle parameter and/or driving parameter to obtain processed second image data;
• and
• combining the first image data with the processed second image data to obtain the image of the surroundings of the vehicle.

A computer readable medium having a computer program, which is executable by a processor, comprising:

• a program code arrangement having program code for ascertaining an image of surroundings of a vehicle, by performing the following:
• reading in first image data and at least second image data, the first image data representing image data of a first image recording area of a camera in or on a vehicle and the second image data representing image data from a second image recording area of the camera, which differs from the first image recording area, and the second image data having been recorded chronologically after the first image data;
• processing the second image data using a vehicle parameter and/or driving parameter to obtain processed second image data;
• and
• combining the first image data with the processed second image data to obtain the image of the surroundings of the vehicle.
