First Claim
1. A method for supplementing object information which is assigned to objects situated in surroundings of a vehicle, comprising:
- reading in a piece of sensor information which represents a response of a driver of the vehicle to the objects situated in a viewing direction of the driver;
evaluating the sensor information to obtain respective detection information for each of the objects, the detection information for each of the objects including an indication of whether the driver has detected the object;
expanding the object information of each of the objects with the respective detection information; and
displaying, on a display device of the vehicle, a representation of only those of the objects whose detection information indicates that the driver has not detected the object while simultaneously omitting the display of the others of the objects.

Abstract
A method for supplementing a piece of object information assigned to an object situated in surroundings of a vehicle includes: reading in a piece of sensor information; evaluating the sensor information; and expanding the object information. In the step of reading in, the piece of sensor information represents a response of a driver of the vehicle to an object situated in a viewing direction of the driver. In the step of evaluating, the sensor information is evaluated to obtain a piece of detection information representing whether the driver has detected the object. In the step of expanding, the object information is expanded with the piece of detection information.
