ABSTRACT:
The invention concerns a device for detecting a running surface for vehicle, comprising a plurality of sensors designed to be oriented towards the running surface to determine modifications thereof, means for processing the data concerning information picked up by the sensors, wherein at least part of the sensors are relatively arranged such that at least the transverse distances separating two adjacent points of aim on the ground of the sensors increase towards a longitudinal axis and along a direction substantially perpendicular to this axis. The invention also concerns a vehicle using this device.
