Parking guidance device and method

Abstract

The present invention relates to a parking guidance device and method. The parking guidance device of the present invention includes: an image acquisition unit that captures images around the vehicle; and an image processing unit that uses the images acquired by the image acquisition unit to generate an image of an AVM image. The processing unit; and the control unit, when entering the parking guidance mode, display a parking position mark around the vehicle in the AVM image, and after selecting a target parking space by using the parking position mark, display a A dot mark at an initial moving position capable of entering the target parking space, using the dot mark to guide the vehicle to move to the initial moving position, and guide the vehicle to enter the target parking space when the vehicle reaches the initial moving position.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the following parking guidance device and method: when performing parking guidance (parking guidance) based on AVM (Around View Monitoring, panoramic monitoring) images, use area-based parking guidance marks to identify various types of parking Provide parking guidance. Background technique [0002] Recently, parking guidance devices such as SPAS (Smart Parking Assist System, Smart Parking Assist System) are mounted on vehicles for the convenience of drivers. Such a parking guidance device determines a target parking position, generates and provides a parking route to the target parking position, and supports the driver's parking. [0003] Conventional parking guidance devices are limited to parking guidance for right-angle parking or parallel parking, and cannot provide parking guidance for various parking types. [0004] In addition, conventional parking guidance devices provide guidance lines based on straight line...

Problems solved by technology

Therefore, it frequently occurs that the driver repeatedly operates the vehicle many times in order to align the guide line with the parking space line.

[0006] In addition, according to the prior art, the distance between the vehicle and the parking space is limited to about 1m, and only the route specified by the parking guidance device can be guided.

[0007] In addition, the conventional technology has the following inconveniences: when the vehicle does not have the automatic steering function, it is necessary to align the guide mark with the parking position entry line, etc., and even when the vehicle has the automatic steering function, it is necessary to perform additional operations on the target parking range Instead, align the guide markings with the parking position entry line
