MONITORING SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR MONITORING

A monitoring system for an environment of a vehicle. The vehicle includes a group of sensors adapted to cover various regions of the environment. The monitoring system includes a receiving module, a classification module, and a processing module. The receiving module is adapted to obtain information about a driving task of the vehicle. The classification module is adapted to classify, based on the obtained information, the group of sensors in at least a first subset and a second subset. The processing module is adapted to process sensor data of the first subset with higher priority than sensor data from sensors from the second subset.
