1. An objection detection system comprising:
- a microwave radar sensor having a first detection range and a first angular detection zone in a first operating mode, and having a second detection range and a second angular detection zone in a second operating mode, wherein the first detection range is larger than the second detection range, and wherein the first angular detection zone is smaller than the second angular detection zone; and
an ultra short-range sensor having a smaller detection range than the second detection range and a larger angular detection zone than the second angular detection zone, wherein the ultra short-range sensor is one of an optical sensor and a radar sensor.

Abstract
An object detection system, in particular for a motor vehicle, has multiple object detectors and/or operating modes with which different detection ranges and/or detection zones are detected. In this case, an object detector is preferably a radar sensor which has a relatively large detection range with a relatively small angular detection zone in a first operating mode and has a detection range that is small relative to the first with an enlarged angular detection zone in a second operating mode.
