Abstract

A computer implemented method for detection of objects in a vicinity of a vehicle comprises the following steps carried out by computer hardware components: acquiring radar data from a radar sensor; determining a plurality of features based on the radar data; providing the plurality of features to a single detection head; and determining a plurality of properties of an object based on an output of the single detection head.
