First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method for determining a loading recommendation for a vehicle, the method comprising:
- determining object dimensions of objects with which the vehicle needs to be loaded;
determining an arrangement of the objects in a cargo space of the vehicle based on the object dimensions of the objects and at least one cargo space dimension of the cargo space; and
outputting the arrangement of the objects in the cargo space as a loading recommendation,wherein the object dimensions of the objects are determined automatically using an optical capture apparatus.

Abstract
A method for determining a loading recommendation for a vehicle. The method involves object dimensions of objects with which the vehicle needs to be loaded being determined automatically using an optical capture apparatus, and an arrangement of the objects in a cargo space of the vehicle being determined on the basis of the object dimensions of the objects and a cargo space dimension of the cargo space. The arrangement of the objects in the cargo space is output as a loading recommendation.
