Abstract
Disclosed herein is a method for operating a video-based driver assistance system in a vehicle (F), wherein, by using image data recorded by an imaging unit and processed by an image processing unit, a vehicle environment and/or at least one object (O) in the vehicle environment and/or status data are determined. In the determination of the vehicle environment, of the object (O) in the vehicle environment and/or of the status data, a pixel offset (P) present in the image data of consecutive images is determined and compensated for. Also disclosed is an apparatus for operating a video-based driver assistance system in a vehicle (F).
