Zusammenfassung:A system for detection of objects in an environment surrounding the vehicle including: at least one image capture device arranged for acquiring images representative of a region of observation in the environment surrounding the vehicle; a map of a road network; and a device for positioning the vehicle within the road network. A predetermined number of road segments of the road network downstream of the determined position of the vehicle and the attributes associated therewith constitute an electronic horizon of the vehicle. An electronic processing unit is connected to the image capture device and arranged for selecting an area of the image acquired by the image capture device as a function of the electronic horizon of the vehicle. The selected area being representative of a region of interest of the region of observation. The electronic processing unit is arranged for detecting predetermined elements of interest within the region of interest.
