PROCESSING SENSOR DATA IN A MOTOR VEHICLE

A method, a computer program comprising instructions, and a device for processing sensor data in a motor vehicle. An assistance system for a motor vehicle in which a method is implemented, and a motor vehicle having such a system. Sensor data is received. At least one algorithm is applied to the sensor data to determine a first intermediate result. At least one rule is applied to the first intermediate result to determine a second intermediate result. The second intermediate result is evaluated with regard to plausibility. If the second intermediate result is implausible, one or more of the rules applied to the first intermediate result is reversed until the second intermediate result is plausible. The second intermediate result thereby obtained is finally output as an end result.
