Device for the automated driving of a motor vehicle, motor vehicle having such a device and method for operating a motor vehicle
First Claim
1. A device for automated driving of a motor vehicle, comprising:
- actuators to drive the motor vehicle;
a control unit to generate control signals for the actuators, to carry out transverse and longitudinal driving of the motor vehicle independently during a journey of the motor vehicle, the control unit acting as a slave in a master-slave arrangement; and
a user interface acting as a master in the master-slave arrangement, to receive an input from a user and to activate the slave in a manner dependent on the input, the input comprising a selection of a new driving maneuver to be performed by the slave and/or a driving parameter to alter a driving maneuver currently being performed by the slave, whereinthe user interface comprises a representation of the motor vehicle, the representation of the motor vehicle being configured as a handle, an image or a symbol arranged in a field, the field having an edge that represents a maximum permissible change in the driving parameter, andthe user interface receives the input from the user such that shifting the representation of the motor vehicle within the field sets the driving parameter and shifting the representation of the motor vehicle beyond the edge of the field selects the driving maneuver.

Abstract
A driver assistance system for the fully automated driving of a motor vehicle has a control device for generating control signals for actuators of the motor vehicle, which are designed to drive the motor vehicle. The control device forms a slave of a master-slave arrangement. A user interface of the device forms the master. The user interface receives as an input from a user, a selection of a driving maneuver that is to be performed by the slave and/or a driving parameter value for a driving parameter with respect to a driving maneuver which is currently carried out by the slave. After completion of the input, the user interface activates the slave as a function of the input. The user interface has a representation of the motor vehicle, arranged in a field, wherein an edge represents a maximum permissible change in the driving parameter value.

16. A method for operating a motor vehicle, comprising:
-
providing a user interface to present a field and to present a representation of the motor vehicle in the field, the field having an edge; using the representation of the motor vehicle in the field to present potential driving maneuvers and to present potential driving parameter values to alter a driving maneuver currently being performed; receiving an input from a user at the user interface, the input specifying a new driving maneuver to be performed or specifying a selected driving parameter value to alter the driving maneuver currently being performed; generating control data in a manner dependent on the input and transmitting the control data to a control unit; and independently, without assistance of the user, changing driving of the motor vehicle by the control unit in accordance with the control data if a predetermined criterion concerning surroundings of the motor vehicle is fulfilled, wherein the user interface receives the input from the user such that shifting the representation of the motor vehicle within the field specifies the selected driving parameter value and shifting the representation of the motor vehicle beyond the edge of the field selects the new driving maneuver.
