METHOD AND DEVICE FOR TRANSMITTING INFORMATION FROM A FIRST ROAD USER TO A SECOND ROAD USER AND FOR RECEIVING INFORMATION THAT HAS BEEN TRANSMITTED FROM A FIRST ROAD USER TO A SECOND ROAD USER

摘要

A method for sending information for a gesture communication between two road users, wherein a first road user is in an ego transportation vehicle and a second road user is in another transportation vehicle in the vehicle surroundings of the ego transportation vehicle. The method includes detecting the hand and/or finger of the first road user in the ego transportation vehicle by sensor; ascertaining a gesture that the first road user makes in the ego transportation vehicle with his hand and/or finger; evaluating the ascertained gesture to determine whether the ascertained gesture is a gesture for gesture communication and is directed at a second road user in another transportation vehicle; and sending a signal containing information about the ascertained gesture for gesture communication to the second road user by the first road user in response to the ascertained gesture being directed at a second road user in another transportation vehicle.
