Abstract

L'invention concerne un procédé de conduite au moins assistée d'un véhicule automobile pour le passage d'un rond-point, ledit procédé comprenant les étapes suivantes consistant à : recevoir des signaux provenant de l'environnement, lesquels signaux représentent la zone qui entoure le véhicule automobile et comprend au moins partiellement un rond-point ; générer des signaux de commande à distance pour commander à distance la commande latérale et/ou longitudinale du véhicule automobile sur la base des signaux provenant de l'environnement, de telle sorte que, lors de la commande à distance de la commande latérale et/ou longitudinale du véhicule automobile sur la base des signaux de commande à distance, le véhicule automobile est au moins assisté pour le passage du rond-point ; délivrer en sortie les signaux de commande à distance générés. L'invention concerne également un dispositif, un programme informatique et un support de stockage lisible par machine.
