Original Abstract Submitted
The present disclosure relates to a method for the detection and determination of the height of objects by means of an environment detection system, including a first environment detection sensor and a second environment detection sensor of a vehicle, wherein at least one of the environment detection sensors is a mono camera. The method includes the following steps: capturing a mono image using the camera; capturing an environment representation using the second environment detection sensor; carrying out object detection in the mono image; carrying out object detection in the environment representation of the second environment detection sensor; measuring the distance from the object in the environment representation of the second environment detection sensor; and carrying out height determination of the detected object.
