Abstract:
1. A device for automated driving of a motor vehicle, comprising: actuators to drive the motor vehicle; a control unit to generate control signals for the actuators, to carry out transverse and longitudinal driving of the motor vehicle independently during a journey of the motor vehicle, the control unit acting as a slave in a master-slave arrangement; and a user interface acting as a master in the master-slave arrangement, to receive an input from a user and to activate the slave in a manner dependent on the input, the input comprising a selection of a new driving maneuver to be performed by the slave and/or a driving parameter to alter a driving maneuver currently being performed by the slave, wherein the user interface comprises a representation of the motor vehicle, the representation of the motor vehicle being configured as a handle, an image or a symbol arranged in a field, the field having an edge that represents a maximum permissible change in the driving parameter, and the user interface receives the input from the user such that shifting the representation of the motor vehicle within the field sets the driving parameter and shifting the representation of the motor vehicle beyond the edge of the field selects the driving maneuver.
