Abstract (en)

[origin: WO9507473A1] The invention relates to a method for detecting and locating obstacles in a vehicle environment. To this effect, it comprises the steps of emitting signals in the direction of said environment from a plurality of radars (2) on the vehicle, deducing from the echo signals received the probability of occupancy, by an obstacle, of a set of elementary cells (9) of said environment, and combining the probabilities relative to each of said cells.
