MUMBAI, India, Sept. 22 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202647103584 A) filed by Aumovio Autonomous Mobility Germany Gmbh on August 27, 2026, for Method For Acquiring Environmental Information Of A Vehicle By Means Of Multiple Ultrasonic Sensors.
Inventors include Mati, Peter; and Lajos, Levente.
The application for the patent was published on September 18, 2026, under issue no. 38/2026.
Abstract: The invention relates to a method, in particular a computer-implemented method, for acquiring environmental information of a vehicle (1) by means of multiple ultrasonic sensors (2), to a data processing device and computer program to carry out the method and to a computer-readable medium on which the computer program is stored. The method comprises: - receiving a measurement signal (USS(t)) by each of the ultrasonic sensors (2) as a function of a recording time (t), - determining two- dimensional object coordinates (x'y') of at least one object (O) in a vehicle environment based on the measurement signal (USS(t) of each ultrasonic sensor (2), - transforming the two-dimensional object coordinates (x',y') to a reference coordinate system by using data (IMU) obtained from at least one vehicle sensor, - extending the transformed two-dimensional object coordinates (x,y,t) corresponding to different recording times (t) and/or ultrasonic sensors (2) into three dimensions by using a dimension extension function (h), and - accumulating object points O(x,y,h,t) corresponding to the transformed two-dimensional object coordinates (x,y,h,t) in an environmental map (EM) containing spatial information about the at least one object (O) in the vehicle environment.
