METHOD FOR POSITIONING A VEHICLE, CONTROL DEVICE OF THE VEHICLE, AND VEHICLE, AND METHOD FOR CONTROLLING AN INDUCTIVE CHARGING STATION, CONTROL DEVICE OF THE CHARGING STATION, AND CHARGING STATION

A method for positioning a vehicle, having an inductive charging coil, at a stationary inductive charging station. The method includes: recognizing an operating state of the vehicle, and/or a state of the environment of the vehicle, based on an acquired first camera image; ascertaining a suitable illumination signal for at least one illumination device of a reference element of the inductive charging station based on the recognized operating state or environmental state; emitting a control signal to the inductive charging station based on the ascertained suitable illumination signal; recognizing the reference element based on an acquired second camera image and of the ascertained suitable illumination signal; determining a relative position and/or an orientation of the vehicle based on the recognized reference element in the second camera image; and controlling the vehicle based on the determined relative position and/or of the orientation.
