Claim One:
1. A method of recognizing and/or tracking objects which correspond to real objects in at least one sensing zone of at least one sensor for electromagnetic radiation on the basis of images of the sensing zone repeatedly sensed by means of the sensor, wherein successive images are evaluated in successive cycles and a respective search is made in a later cycle in a corresponding later image for at least one object found in a cycle on the basis of at least one corresponding image in order to track it, and wherein at least one part of an earlier image and/or at least one indication with respect to an earlier state of the object or of a real object corresponding to it, which is determined using a corresponding earlier image in the current cycle, is associated with at least one part of a current image determined in the current cycle or with an object recognized in the current cycle during at least one current cycle on the basis of the results of an at least preliminary evaluation of a current image.
