Abstract
A system and method relates to displaying a vehicle surrounding with an adjustable point of view, including at least one sensor device on the vehicle, a processor, and a display. The sensor device is configured to measure distances to objects of the vehicle surrounding. In addition, the processor is configured to generate a three-dimensional environment map based on the measured distances of the sensor device. Further, the display is configured to display the three-dimensional environment map having an adjustable point of view based on a particular driving situation.

A system for displaying a vehicle surrounding with an adjustable point of view, comprising:
- at least one sensor device on the vehicle, the at least one sensor device configured to measure distances to objects of the vehicle surrounding;
- a processor configured to generate a three-dimensional environment map based on the measured distances of the at least one sensor device;
- and
- a display configured to display the three-dimensional environment map having an adjustable point of view based on a particular driving situation.
A method for displaying a vehicle surrounding with an adjustable point of view, comprising:
- measuring distances, by at least one sensor device on the vehicle, to objects of the vehicle surrounding;
- generating, by a processor, a three-dimensional environment map based on the measured distances of the at least one sensor device;
- and
- displaying, by a display, the three-dimensional environment map having an adjustable point of view based on a particular driving situation.
