Abstract
A control unit for at least one vehicle deceleration device of a vehicle. The control unit includes an electronics unit including a memory unit in which a characteristic curve is stored which specifies a relation between a first input variable specified by an operation of a brake actuation element of the vehicle, and a setpoint variable regarding a setpoint vehicle deceleration exerted on the vehicle using the at least one vehicle deceleration device. The electronics device newly specifies at least one characteristic curve value of the characteristic curve under consideration of a second input variable specified by the driver by an operation of an accelerator of the vehicle, a current traffic and/or environment situation, and/or an ascertained position of the vehicle and a position-specific item of traffic and/or environment information, and the correspondingly modified characteristic curve is stored in the memory unit.
