Abstract
A driver assistance method for moving a motor vehicle, in particular for avoiding collisions, using at least one first sensor system which provides first items of obstacle information within a first detection zone for notifying the motor vehicle driver of an obstacle while an obstacle is located in the first detection zone, and using at least one second sensor system, which provides second items of obstacle information within a second detection zone which is located at an angle greater than 0° in relation to the first detection zone even if the obstacle is no longer located in the second detection zone. It is provided that the first and second items of obstacle information are combined in such a way that detection errors of the sensor systems are corrected and an updated item of obstacle information is provided. Also described is a driver assistance device, in particular for carrying out the driver assistance method according to the aforementioned embodiments.

20. A driver assistance device for providing driver assistance, comprising:
-
a first sensor system, which senses a first detection zone, and provides at least one first item of obstacle information; a second sensor system, which senses a second detection zone, and provides at least one second item of obstacle information, wherein the first sensor system and the second sensor system are situated so that the first detection zone and the second detection zone are located at an angle greater than 0°
in relation to each other;at least one evaluation arrangement having has at least one memory for storing at least one of the first item of obstacle information and the second item of obstacle information, even if the obstacle is no longer located in the detection zones, wherein the first sensor system and the second sensor system are connected to the at least one evaluation arrangement; and at least one of a display device and a device for emitting acoustic signals, wherein the evaluation arrangement is configured as an obstacle information processing unit which corrects detection errors for combining and providing an updated item of obstacle information. - View Dependent Claims (21, 22)
