    Abstract: The invention relates to a method for calibrating a camera system (7) of a motor vehicle (1). At least one camera (8-11) respectively sequentially generates camera images (21-28) from an environment (2) of the motor vehicle (1). A computing device (12) generates a virtual view (14) of the environment (2) from a virtual perspective from the camera images (21-28) by means of a projection (P). In traveling, the computing device (12) passes at least once a calibration cycle for each camera (8-11). Based on current projection parameters (30) of the projection (P), therein, camera images (23, 24) of the camera (9) are transformed. Motion vectors are determined from it. For at least one geometric characteristic of the motion vectors, a reference value is set. From a difference between the at least one geometric characteristic of the motion vectors and the respective corresponding reference value, an error value is determined. Depending on the error value, new projection parameters are determined (30).

    Abstract: A method for operating a driver assistance system of a motor vehicle is provided. A first image sequence of a first rear environmental region of the motor vehicle is provided by a first camera system of an electronic rearview mirror and the first image sequence is displayed on a display device of the electronic rearview mirror disposed in an interior of the motor vehicle. Furthermore, a second image sequence of a second environmental region of the motor vehicle, which overlaps with the first environmental region at least in certain areas, is provided by a second camera system of an environmental capturing device. The electronic rearview mirror is then checked for presence of a malfunction by a computing device of the driver assistance system and the second image sequence is displayed on the display device of the electronic rearview mirror when the malfunction is present.
