Abstract

See full text

A control system for use in a motor vehicle is used for monitoring a current driving situation of the motor vehicle, based on surroundings data of the host motor vehicle in the current driving situation, obtained from at least one surroundings sensor situated on the host motor vehicle. The control system is used to recognize lanes, lane boundary lines, lane markings, and/or other motor vehicles in an area in front of, to the side of, and/or behind the host motor vehicle. In addition, the control system is used to determine at least one driving parameter for each other motor vehicle present in the surroundings of the host motor vehicle, based on the provided surroundings data, and to generate a plurality of possible trajectories for the future travel course for each of the other motor vehicles, based on the driving parameter determined in each case. Lastly, the control system is used to carry out a simulation of the plurality of possible trajectories for the future travel course for each of the other motor vehicles, and to group in each case the plurality of possible trajectories for the future travel course for each of the other motor vehicles, based on the simulation.
