Assignee: MERCEDES-BENZ GROUP AG
Field: Transport (Mechanical engineering)
Classification: CPC B | IPC B

Claim 0:
1. A method for a vehicle, the method comprising:
detecting, laterally static and laterally dynamic objects, which the vehicle is to drive past, as lateral boundary objects;
detecting a respective lateral distance of the vehicle from each detected lateral boundary objects;
determining a speed of the detected lateral boundary objects;
classifying, at least the detected laterally dynamic objects, according to a type of laterally dynamic object; and
controlling the vehicle based on a characteristic curve selected from a set of characteristic curves stored in the vehicle,
wherein each characteristic curve of the set of characteristic curves is assigned to an environmental situation predetermined depending on detected lateral boundary objects,
wherein each characteristic curve of the set of characteristic curves predetermines a maximum speed the vehicle is to drive past the detected boundary object at different lateral distances from the detected boundary object,
wherein characteristic curves of the set of characteristic curves for a current environmental situation on a left lane side and on a right lane side of the vehicle are selected, and a maximum speed and a lateral target position of the vehicle between two lateral boundary objects is controlled based on the selected characteristic curves, and
wherein the selected characteristic curves corresponding to the environmental situation on the left and right lane sides are added to form an overall characteristic curve that is used to control the vehicle.
