Abstract

A method for monitoring surroundings of a first sensor system. The method includes: providing a temporal sequence of data of the first sensor system for monitoring the surroundings; generating an input tensor including the temporal sequence of data of the first sensor system, for a trained neural network; the neural network being configured and trained to identify, on the basis of the input tensor, at least one subregion of the surroundings, in order to improve the monitoring of the surroundings with the aid of a second sensor system; generating a control signal for the second sensor system with the aid of an output signal of the trained neural network, in order to improve the monitoring of the surroundings in the at least one subregion.
