Abstract

A method for processing data for a driving function of a vehicle is described, a predefined quantity of computation units being provided; the computation units supplying data, in particular redundant data, to a decision unit; the decision unit deciding, based on a comparison of the data delivered by the computation units, whether the data are correct; a synchronization unit being provided; the synchronization unit synchronizing the computation units in such a way that the computation units deliver the data to the decision unit in a specified time period; and the synchronization unit informing the decision unit as to when the data are transmitted by the computation units, so that the decision unit can specify which data of the computation units are used for a check of the data.
