Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2017198743A1] The invention relates to a method for verifying the content and installation site of traffic signs, having the step of detecting a traffic sign in one or more images of at least one camera. By analyzing the images, the content, which is visually perceivable to a person, of the traffic sign depicted in the image is determined. Furthermore, the installation site of the traffic sign is determined, and data which is not directly perceivable or interpretable to a person is obtained, said data being provided by the traffic sign and representing at least the content and the installation site of the traffic sign. If the determined data matches the data obtained from the traffic sign, the content of the traffic sign is displayed or announced to a driver of the vehicle in order to provide information. Alternatively or in addition thereto, the content of the traffic sign is supplied to a system for influencing the vehicle. In the event of a non-match, an additional automatic plausibility check can be carried out or the driver can be posed a query or be provided with information.
