Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	A method for monitoring a vehicle's surrounding region, includes reading in a distance image pertaining to the surrounding region, the distance image including distance values representing the result of a multiplicity of distance measurements, which are performed with a sensor for stereo image recording based on a method for calculating a stereo disparity map concerning the surrounding region sensed by the sensor. In a selecting, a cut-away portion from the distance image is selected, and in a detecting, an obstacle located in the surrounding region is detected using the distance values included in the cut-away portion. In an ascertaining, a number of relevant distance values is ascertained, which represent distance values included in the cut-away portion that are allocatable to the obstacle. In an ascertaining, a value of an existence measure for the existence of the obstacle is determined, based on the number and quality of relevant distance values.
