Abstract:
1. A method for operating a motor vehicle in an automated driving mode, comprising: identifying, by a first identification device, the current position of the vehicle, and objects and open spaces currently present in the vehicle surroundings; identifying, by a second identification device, the current position of the vehicle, and objects and open spaces currently present in the vehicle surroundings; calculating, by a first planning device, a first trajectory for independent vehicle guidance; calculating, by a second planning device, a second trajectory for independent vehicle guidance; generating, by a first regulation device, first control signals for actuator devices; generating, by a second regulation device, second control signals for actuator devices; applying control, in accordance with one of the calculated first and second trajectories, to longitudinal-dynamics-influencing actuators and to transverse-dynamics-influencing actuators for vehicle control; wherein transfers of (i) at least one of position data and vehicle surroundings data to the planning devices, (ii) information regarding the trajectories to the regulation devices, and (iii) the control signals to the actuators, are enabled using different signal transfer paths.
