Abstract
The invention relates to a method for representing an environmental region of a motor vehicle in an image, in which real images of the environmental region are captured by a plurality of real cameras of the motor vehicle and the image is generated from these real images, which at least partially represents the environmental region, wherein the image is represented from a perspective of a virtual camera arranged in the environmental region, and the image is generated as a bowl shape, wherein at least one virtual elongated distance marker is represented in the image, by which a distance to the motor vehicle is symbolized in the virtual bowl shape. The invention also relates to a computer program product and a display system for a motor vehicle.
