Abstract

A method for detecting a braking intention in a vehicle includes: establishing at least one setpoint braking power for the braking intention specified by a driver and/or an automatic vehicle control system; and taking at least one ascertained sensor variable into consideration. The sensor variable includes: a variable regarding a position and/or an adjustment travel of an output rod of the braking system, a position and/or an adjustment travel of a booster body of the braking system, a position and/or an adjustment travel of a timing case of the braking system, a position, an adjustment travel and/or a rotation angle of a component of a motor of an electromechanical brake booster, a position, an adjustment travel and/or a rotation angle of a component of a thread of the brake booster, and/or a shape and/or a deformation of a reaction disk of the braking system.
