Abstract: It is the object of the present invention to demonstrate a simple method for determining a geometric parameter (H, B, L, R, F) of a trailer (3) of a vehicle/trailer combination (7) with a motor vehicle (1) and the trailer (3). The invention relates to a method for determining at least one geometric parameter (H, B, L, R, F) of a trailer (3) of a vehicle/trailer combination (7) with a motor vehicle (1) and the trailer (3), in which the trailer (3) is captured by at least one detector unit (5) disposed at the motor vehicle (1) and the geometric parameter (H, B, L, R, F) is determined depending thereon, wherein in the state of the trailer (3) attached to the motor vehicle (1), at least one characteristic location (12) of the trailer (3) is captured in a first operating state of a functional unit (9) of the trailer (3) by a detector unit (5) of the motor vehicle (1), and in a state of the trailer (3) attached to the motor vehicle (1), at least the characteristic location (12) of the trailer (3) in a second operating state of the functional unit (9) of the trailer (3) different from the first operating state is captured by a detector unit of the motor vehicle (1), and depending on the information of the characteristic location (12) obtained in the two operating states of the functional unit (9), the geometric parameter (H, B, L, R, F) of the trailer (3) is determined.

Abstract: A method is disclosed for detecting raised pavement markers in an environment of a vehicle by a camera system. The method includes capturing at least one first image of at least one first part of the environment by at least one first camera of the camera system and analyzing the at least one first image and determining whether at least one first pavement marker is present in the environment in dependency of a result of the analysis of the at least one first image. The method further includes capturing at least one second image of at least one second part of the environment by at least one second camera of the camera system and analyzing the at least one second image and determining whether the at least one first or at least one second pavement marker is present in the environment in dependency of a result of the analysis.
