Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of vehicle-finding assistance, and more particularly to a self-service vending system, a control method and a medium with a vehicle-finding assistance function. Background Art

[0002] For large parking lots, a system for finding the parking location of vehicles has high practical value. Currently, it mainly collects license plate information by installing license plate recognition cameras in parking spaces. The camera uploads the collected license plate information to the server for storage. The user enters the license plate number through the query terminal. After the server matches the license plate number, it displays the parking space number of the vehicle, or further navigates and guides the user to the parking location of the vehicle.

[0003] The existing technical solution for finding the parking location of a vehicle is mainly completed through video recognition technology, which is specifically composed of a license plate recognition camera, a server, and a query terminal deployed at a location related to the parking space. The license plate recognition camera, the server, and the query terminal are connected through a network.

[0004] After the vehicle is parked, the license plate recognition camera identifies the license plate number and uploads the license plate number and its corresponding parking space number to the server, or the server matches the correspondence between the license plate number and the parking space number based on the camera information, and saves the parking space number and the corresponding parked vehicle license plate number.

[0005] The query terminal can be a mobile smart phone connected to the Internet, or it can be a parking lot-specific query terminal. The user enters the license plate number through the query terminal, and the query terminal sends a request to the server to obtain the parking space number of the vehicle corresponding to the license plate number. The server queries and returns the parking space number of the vehicle corresponding to the license plate number to the query terminal based on the license plate number. After receiving the parking space number, the query terminal displays the parking space number to the user, or further displays a photo of the parked vehicle and a route map from the current location to the parking location of the vehicle to the user.

[0006] The disadvantage of existing video car search technology is that the camera recognition range is limited. Generally, one camera can recognize up to three parking spaces. A parking lot needs to deploy a large number of cameras, as well as network cables to connect the cameras and power cables to provide power to the cameras. The project is large in scale and the equipment cost is high, which suppresses the enthusiasm of parking lot managers to install video car search systems.

[0007] At the same time, in order to achieve better recognition effects, the existing video car search system also has certain requirements for the location and angle of the camera installation. Many parking lots are unable to install the video car search system due to space limitations, which objectively limits the large-scale promotion and application of the video car search system.

[0008] The installation and maintenance phase of the existing video car search system does not generate direct economic benefits for parking lot management units, and car owners will not pay for using the car search service. For a public service product that only has input but no output, it is difficult to promote it on a large scale without external financial support. On the other hand, even if the existing system is in operation, since funds need to be continuously invested during the maintenance period, once the management encounters financial difficulties, it will be difficult to keep the video car search system in normal working condition. Summary of the invention

[0009] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a self-service vending system, a control method and a medium with a vehicle-finding assistance function.
