Method for assisting driver while operating vehicle i.e. motor car, for reducing collision and accidents between vehicles and objects, involves performing clearance requiring protective measurement if free space is determined in environment

摘要

The method involves determining a collision time until an occurrence of a collision between a vehicle (1) and a respective object. Images (B1, B2) of an environment of the vehicle are detected using image detecting units (3, 7). The detected images are determined before introducing protective measures for an implementation of a free space requiring protective measurement in a region. The clearance requiring protective measurement is performed if a corresponding free space is determined in the environment. Independent claims are also included for the following: (1) device for assisting a driver while operating a vehicle (2) a vehicle.
