Method for changing a forward displacement of an occupant of a vehicle during braking of the vehicle and control unit

A method for changing a forward displacement of an occupant of a vehicle during a braking of the vehicle, comprising:

• reading in a seat belt status signal that represents a status of a seat belt for buckling in the occupant, and an occupant position signal that represents at least one of:
• at least one of a position and a location of the occupant in the vehicle, and
• a change in the at least one of the position and the location;
• processing the seat belt status signal and the occupant position signal to ascertain the forward displacement;
• and
• generating at least one control signal for controlling at least one of a braking device of the vehicle and at least one restraint device for restraining the occupant as a function of the forward displacement in order to alter the forward displacement.

A control unit for carrying out a method for changing a forward displacement of an occupant of a vehicle during a braking of the vehicle, the method comprising:

• reading in a seat belt status signal that represents a status of a seat belt for buckling in the occupant, and an occupant position signal that represents at least one of:
• at least one of a position and a location of the occupant in the vehicle, and
• a change in the at least one of the position and the location;
• processing the seat belt status signal and the occupant position signal to ascertain the forward displacement;
• and
• generating at least one control signal for controlling at least one of a braking device of the vehicle and at least one restraint device for restraining the occupant as a function of the forward displacement in order to alter the forward displacement.

A computer program for carrying out a method for changing a forward displacement of an occupant of a vehicle during a braking of the vehicle, the method comprising:

• reading in a seat belt status signal that represents a status of a seat belt for buckling in the occupant, and an occupant position signal that represents at least one of:
• at least one of a position and a location of the occupant in the vehicle, and
• a change in the at least one of the position and the location;
• processing the seat belt status signal and the occupant position signal to ascertain the forward displacement;
• and
• generating at least one control signal for controlling at least one of a braking device of the vehicle and at least one restraint device for restraining the occupant as a function of the forward displacement in order to alter the forward displacement.

A machine-readable storage medium on which a computer program is stored, wherein the computer program is for carrying out a method for changing a forward displacement of an occupant of a vehicle during a braking of the vehicle, the method comprising:

• reading in a seat belt status signal that represents a status of a seat belt for buckling in the occupant, and an occupant position signal that represents at least one of:
• at least one of a position and a location of the occupant in the vehicle, and
• a change in the at least one of the position and the location;
• processing the seat belt status signal and the occupant position signal to ascertain the forward displacement;
• and
• generating at least one control signal for controlling at least one of a braking device of the vehicle and at least one restraint device for restraining the occupant as a function of the forward displacement in order to alter the forward displacement.
