Abstract:
The invention relates to a method and a device for displaying an image of the surroundings of a combination of two vehicles that are coupled to one another. According to the invention, image data is sensed by sensors on both of the combined vehicles. Taking into account the three-dimensional position of the vehicles relative to one another, the image data is then combined so as to obtain a common image of the surroundings. The obtained common image of the surroundings allows a driver/operator to efficiently and safely perceive the surroundings around the entire vehicle combination.

Claim (Index 1):
A method for displaying an image of the surroundings of a vehicle combination, having the steps of:\n providing first image data sensed by sensors by means of a first vehicle sensor unit arranged on a first vehicle; providing second image data sensed by sensors by means of a second vehicle sensor unit arranged on a second vehicle; establishing a three-dimensional position of the second vehicle in relation to the first vehicle; combining the first image data and the second image data using the established three-dimensional position of the second vehicle in relation to the first vehicle in order to obtain an image of the surroundings; obtaining a graphical representation of the second vehicle; and displaying the obtained image of the surroundings on a vehicle display; wherein predetermined driving situations or driving maneuvers are detected, and an insertion of the obtained graphical representation of the second vehicle into the obtained image of the surroundings is activated or deactivated as a function of the detected predetermined driving situation or the detected driving maneuver.
