Claim 0:
1. A method for operating a vehicle assistance or control system with a vehicle and with an offboard obstacle recognition sensor for recognizing obstacles for the vehicle, wherein the vehicle includes an onboard obstacle recognition sensor for recognizing obstacles to the vehicle, comprising:
generating a first grid map relative to the offboard obstacle recognition sensor;
generating a second grid map relative to the onboard obstacle recognition sensor, or respectively relative to the vehicle; and
generating a consolidated grid map depending on the first grid map and the second grid map; wherein
the consolidated grid map is generated depending on the alignment of the offboard obstacle recognition sensor relative to the vehicle and/or relative to the onboard obstacle recognition sensor; and wherein
the alignment of the offboard obstacle recognition sensor is determined relative to the vehicle and/or relative to the onboard obstacle recognition sensor using an optimization and/or minimization of the distances between:
rotated measured values of the offboard obstacle recognition sensor and shifted measured values of the onboard obstacle recognition sensor,
rotated measured values of the onboard obstacle recognition sensor and shifted measured values of the offboard obstacle recognition sensor,
rotated and shifted measured values of the offboard obstacle recognition sensor and measured values of the onboard obstacle recognition sensor, or
rotated and shifted measured values of the onboard obstacle recognition sensor and measured values of the offboard obstacle recognition sensor.
