Abstract

See full text

Displaying an environment of a vehicle comprising recording an image of an adjacent exterior environment of the vehicle in the form of image data with the aid of a plurality of image capture units and displaying an output image with the aid of a display device. A virtual, three-dimensional space and a surface are determined with the aid of an arithmetic unit the virtual, three-dimensional space being at least partially delimited by the surface. A projection of the image data onto the surface is calculated with the aid of the arithmetic unit. A virtual vehicle object from predetermined data is calculated as a computer-generated graphic in the virtual, three-dimensional space with the aid of the arithmetic unit. The output image is generated with the aid of the arithmetic unit by rendering a viewing volume which includes the virtual vehicle object, the viewing volume being delimited by the surface, and the viewing volume being based on a viewing position and a viewing angle and a zoom factor in the virtual, three-dimensional space.
