Abstract

A plausibility check module for a vehicle driver assistance system, including at least one sensor for detecting the vehicle surroundings, and Kl-module(s) to classify objects in the surroundings based on the sensor data supplied by the sensor with an internal processing chain established by parameters, the plausibility check module receiving pieces of reference information about objects in the surroundings supplied by other vehicles and/or by an infrastructure, and comparing the pieces of reference information with the classification result by the Kl-module and to initiate at least one measure for a deviation established by the comparison, so that the parameters of the processing chain of the Kl-module are adapted to the effect that the deviation is reduced in comparable situations. Also described are a driver assistance system having the plausibility check module and Kl-module(s), a method for calibrating a sensor for detecting the vehicle surroundings, and an associated computer program.
