Abstract
A method for situation-based processing of sensor data from a motor vehicle. Sensor data generated by sensors relating to the situation in the surroundings of the motor vehicle is transferred to a processing unit via a bus. The processing unit takes into account the transferred sensor data to determine an information requirement, and generates a request for additional sensor data on the basis of the determined information requirement and the load on the bus, and sends this request to the sensors. A corresponding device is also described.
Claims10
A method for situation-based processing of sensor data from a motor vehicle, comprising:
- transferring sensor data generated by sensors relating to a situation in surroundings of the motor vehicle to a processing unit via a bus;
- determining, by the processing unit, an information requirement, the processing unit taking into account the transferred sensor data in the determining of the information requirement;
- generating a request for additional sensor data based on the determined information requirement and a load on the bus;
- and
- sending, by the processing unit, the request to the sensors.
A device for situation-based processing of sensor data from a motor vehicle, comprising:
- a processing unit;
- a number of sensors configured to monitor surroundings of the motor vehicle;
- and
- a bus which connects the sensors to the processing unit;
- wherein the sensors are configured to generate sensor data relating to a situation in the surroundings of the motor vehicle, and to transfer the sensor data to the processing unit via the bus, and the processing unit is configured to take into account the transferred sensor data to determine an information requirement, and to generate at least one request for additional sensor data based on the determined information requirement and a load on the bus, and to send the request to the sensors.
