Abstract
In addition to the electrification of the powertrain, the automation of the driving functions via the various SAE levels (Techrepublic, 2016) represents one of the main challenges faced by the automotive industry today from both, a competitive and a technical perspective. As early as 2020, vehicles should be technically capable of driving on the motorway without further intervention by the driver. Autonomous driving in urban environments, however, is not expected to hit the market before the year 2030 due to the greater complexity of environment detection and situation analysis and not least because of unresolved legal questions.
