METHOD FOR OPERATING AN AUTONOMOUS DRIVING FUNCTION OF A VEHICLE

A method for operating an autonomous driving function of a vehicle. The vehicle includes a computer unit and sensors for detecting surroundings data. The computer unit is configured to determine a setpoint trajectory for the vehicle, based on the detected surroundings data. In step a), an actual trajectory, and distances from objects in the surroundings, are detected. In step b), an ascertainment of the quality of the autonomous driving function takes place by comparing the actual trajectory to the setpoint trajectory and monitoring the detected distances from objects in the surroundings. In step c), a control of the quality to a predefined target value takes place by selecting sensors to be used for the autonomous driving function from the plurality of sensors and/or by changing a measuring rate, at which measurements are carried out, of at least one sensor from the plurality of sensors.
