Patent ID: 10950127

Abstract:
The invention relates to a method for operating a driver assistance system (2) of a motor vehicle (1), including a) Capturing an environment (4) of the motor vehicle (1) by a capturing device (3) of the driver assistance system (2); b) Detecting an accessible freespace (6) in the captured environment (4) by a computing device (5) of the driver assistance system (2); c) Detecting and Classifying at least one object (7a-7e) in the captured environment (4) that is located at a border (8) of the freespace (6) by a neural network (9) of the driver assistance system (2); d) Assigning a part (10a-10e) of the border (8) of the freespace (6) to the detected and classified object (7a-7e); and e) Categorizing a part (11a-11e) of the freespace (6) adjacent to the part (10a-10e) of the border (8) that is assigned to the detected and classified object (7a-7e) in dependence upon the class of that classified object (7a-7e), so as to enable improved safety in driving.
