Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of intelligent driving, and more specifically, to a parking method, apparatus, and vehicle. Background Technology

[0002] With the development of intelligent driving functions in vehicles and the continuous improvement of intelligent driving levels, users are using these functions more and more frequently during vehicle use. Currently, various automatic parking (AP) functions have been developed to assist or help users park their vehicles. Automatic parking refers to the vehicle automatically parking itself into a parking space; that is, the intelligent driving system can help the user park the vehicle semi-automatically or fully automatically. Automatic parking can include automatic parking assist (APA), remote parking assist (RPA), and automatic valet parking (AVP), among others. Summary of the Invention

[0003] This application provides a parking method, device, and vehicle. By displaying an icon of the target parking space on the parking interface, the user can be indicated to the boundary of the parking space that the vehicle will approach after parking in the target parking space. This reduces the probability of the user incorrectly determining or selecting the boundary of the parking space that the vehicle needs to approach when the user's perception of left and right is unclear, thereby improving parking efficiency and enhancing the user's experience during the parking process.

[0004] Firstly, a parking method is provided that can be executed by a vehicle, for example, by the vehicle's computing platform, or by a chip or circuitry used in the vehicle. The method can also be executed by an electronic device associated with the vehicle (such as a mobile phone), for example, by the phone's processor, chip, or circuitry.

[0005] The method includes: acquiring first information, the first information indicating that when a vehicle is parked in a target parking space, the distance between the first boundary of the target parking space and the outer contour of the vehicle is less than the distance between the second boundary of the target parking space and the outer contour of the vehicle; wherein the first boundary and the second boundary are the longer boundary of the target parking space; and controlling a first display device to display a first icon based on the first information, the first icon being an icon of the target parking space, and the first icon including an enhanced first boundary, the enhanced first boundary indicating that the vehicle is close to the first boundary when parked in the target parking space.

[0006] In some implementations, when the method is executed by an electronic device or its components, the first information may be sent by the vehicle to the electronic device via a cloud server.

[0007] In the above technical solution, by enhancing the first boundary of the display, the user can be indicated to the user the boundary of the parking space that the vehicle will approach after parking in the target parking space. This allows the user to determine the side of the target parking space boundary that the vehicle will approach after parking in the target parking space based on the vehicle's parking posture, reducing the probability of the user mistakenly selecting the parking space boundary that the vehicle needs to approach when the user's left and right perception is unclear. This helps to improve parking efficiency and the user's parking experience.

[0008] In conjunction with the first aspect, in some implementations of the first aspect, the first information includes information indicating the target parking posture and information indicating the target parking posture; wherein, the target parking posture indicates the posture of the vehicle when parking in the target parking space; the target parking posture indicates the positional relationship between the vehicle's outline and the target parking space when the vehicle is parked in the target parking space; and the first display device is the vehicle's display device.

[0009] In some implementations, when the method is executed by a vehicle or its components, the first information includes information indicating the target parking posture and information indicating the target stopping posture. For example, the first information may be generated in response to a user's selection or adjustment of the parking posture and / or stopping posture, or the first information may be generated based on information such as environmental information around the vehicle and the position of the target parking space relative to the vehicle.

[0010] In conjunction with the first aspect, in some implementations of the first aspect, the method further includes: obtaining parking intention information, wherein the parking intention information indicates that the vehicle's preferred target parking posture is at least one of the following: a parking posture away from obstacles around the target parking space, or a parking posture that facilitates the opening of the door on the driver's side; and determining the parking space boundary of the target parking space that the vehicle is close to when parking in the target parking space based on the parking intention information and the target parking posture.

[0011] In some implementations, the target parking pose can be determined based on the relative position between the vehicle and the target parking space; or, the target parking pose can be preset by the parking system, for example, the parking system can preset head-in or tail-in parking.

[0012] In the aforementioned technical solution, the vehicle's proximity to the parking space boundary when parked in the target parking space can be determined based on parking intention information and the target parking posture, which helps improve the vehicle's intelligence and human-like characteristics. When the vehicle's target parking posture is away from obstacles, the probability of collisions between the vehicle and obstacles can be reduced, improving safety during parking. When the vehicle's target parking posture is one that facilitates opening the driver's side door, it facilitates the driver's exit after parking and allows the user to easily control the vehicle to leave the target parking space, improving the driver's operational convenience. For example, when the parking space is narrow, if the target parking posture is one that facilitates opening the driver's side door, the user can get into the vehicle without using remote parking to park it out of the space.

[0013] In conjunction with the first aspect, in some implementations of the first aspect, the parking intent information is determined in response to the user's settings regarding the vehicle.

[0014] The above technical solution provides users with a way to set their preferred target parking position, which can meet users' personalized needs and further improve their parking experience.

[0015] In some implementations, parking intent information can also be pre-set by the parking system.

[0016] In conjunction with the first aspect, in some implementations of the first aspect, the first icon further indicates that the target parking posture is a first parking posture, which is either head-in or tail-in parking. The method further includes: in response to a first instruction indicating adjustment of the target parking posture, determining to change the target parking posture from the first parking posture to a second parking posture, which is either head-in or tail-in parking, and the second parking posture is different from the first parking posture; controlling a first display device to display a second icon, which is an icon of the target parking space, the second icon including an enhanced second boundary, the enhanced second boundary indicating that the vehicle is parked in the target parking space and is close to the second parking space boundary when parked in the target parking space.

[0017] In the above technical solution, after adjusting the target parking position, the boundary of the parking space the vehicle approaches is adjusted accordingly, keeping the fixed side of the vehicle close to the boundary of the target parking space. For example, when the target parking position is head-in parking, the left side of the vehicle is close to the boundary of the target parking space when it is parked. After the target parking position is adjusted to tail-in parking, the left side of the vehicle is still close to the boundary of the target parking space when it is parked. At this time, the enhanced display indicates the second boundary of the parking space boundary that the left side of the vehicle is close to, which allows the user to intuitively understand the change in the boundary of the parking space that the vehicle is close to when it is parked, thereby enhancing the user's perception of the parking intention and helping to improve the user's parking experience.

[0018] In conjunction with the first aspect, in some implementations of the first aspect, the first icon further indicates that the target parking posture is a first parking posture, which is either head-in or tail-in parking. The method further includes: in response to a second instruction indicating adjustment of the target parking posture, determining to change the target parking posture from the first parking posture to a second parking posture, which is either head-in or tail-in parking, and the second parking posture is different from the first parking posture; controlling a first display device to display a third icon, which is an icon of the target parking space, and the third icon includes a first boundary for enhanced display.

[0019] In the above technical solution, after adjusting the target parking posture, the boundary of the parking space that the vehicle is close to remains unchanged. For example, when the target parking posture is head-in parking, the vehicle is close to the first boundary of the target parking space when it is parked in the target parking space. After the target parking posture is adjusted to tail-in parking, the vehicle is still close to the first boundary of the target parking space when it is parked in the target parking space. At this time, the enhanced display indicates the first boundary of the first parking space, which allows the user to intuitively know the boundary of the parking space that the vehicle is close to when it is parked, thereby enhancing the user's perception of the parking intention and helping to improve the user's parking experience.

[0020] In conjunction with the first aspect, in some implementations of the first aspect, the first icon is determined when the target parking posture is a first parking posture, the first parking posture indicating that when the vehicle is parked in the target parking space, the distance between the vehicle's outline and the boundary of the first parking space is less than the distance between the vehicle's outline and the boundary of the second parking space; the method further includes: determining to change the target parking posture to a second parking posture based on the second parking posture and the boundary of the first parking space, the second parking posture indicating that when the vehicle is parked in the target parking space, it is close to the boundary of the first parking space; wherein, the third icon also indicates the second parking posture.

[0021] In the above technical solution, after adjusting the target parking posture, the vehicle can automatically adjust the target parking posture while the boundary of the parking space it approaches remains unchanged, which helps to improve the intelligence of the vehicle.

[0022] In conjunction with the first aspect, in some implementations of the first aspect, the first icon is determined when the target parking posture is a first parking posture, the first parking posture indicating that when the vehicle is parked in the target parking space, the distance between the vehicle's outline and the boundary of the first parking space is less than the distance between the vehicle's outline and the boundary of the second parking space; the method further includes: in response to a second instruction indicating adjustment of the target parking posture, determining to change the target parking posture to a third parking posture; and according to the third parking posture, controlling a first display device to display a fourth icon, the fourth icon including an enhanced third boundary, the enhanced third boundary indicating that the vehicle is close to the boundary of the second parking space when parked in the target parking space.

[0023] With the target parking position unchanged, adjusting the target parking position will change the boundary of the parking space the vehicle will approach when parking in the target parking space. This technical solution directly indicates the boundary of the parking space the vehicle will approach after parking to the user via an icon of the target parking space, eliminating the need for the user to manually determine the boundary and reducing the likelihood of incorrectly selecting the appropriate parking space boundary when the user lacks left-right awareness.

[0024] In conjunction with the first aspect, in some implementations of the first aspect, the method further includes: planning a parking path based on the target parking position and the target parking position; controlling the vehicle to park in the target parking space along the parking path and park in the target parking space with the target parking position.

[0025] In conjunction with the first aspect, in some implementations of the first aspect, the method further includes: during the process of controlling the vehicle to park in the target parking space, controlling the first display device to display a first interface and / or a second interface, the first interface including at least one control for controlling parking, and the second interface including real-time video during the parking process; the first interface including an icon of the target parking space, the icon of the target parking space including an enhanced icon boundary, the enhanced icon boundary indicating the parking space boundary that the vehicle approaches when parking in the target parking space in the target parking position.

[0026] In the above technical solution, during the parking process, the parking control interface continuously displays an enhanced view of the parking space boundary to enhance the user's perception of the parking space boundary that the vehicle is approaching after parking.

[0027] In conjunction with the first aspect, in some implementations of the first aspect, the method further includes: when the second interface includes pixels of the first boundary of the target parking space, controlling the second interface to display a first effect, the first effect indicating the position of the parking space boundary that the vehicle is close to when parking in the target parking space in the real-time image.

[0028] In the above technical solution, during the parking process, the boundary of the parking space that the vehicle is approaching is indicated in the real-time image through corresponding effects, which helps users to more intuitively determine the boundary of the parking space that the vehicle is approaching when parking.

[0029] In conjunction with the first aspect, in some implementations of the first aspect, the method further includes: acquiring environmental perception information and / or in-situ detection information, wherein the environmental perception information indicates the position of obstacles around the target parking space and the in-situ detection information indicates the presence of occupants inside the vehicle; and determining a first parking posture based on the environmental perception information and / or in-situ detection information.

[0030] In some implementations, determining the first parking pose based on environmental perception information and / or in-situ detection information also includes determining the first parking pose based on environmental perception information and / or in-situ detection information, as well as parking intention information.

[0067] The technical solutions in the embodiments of this application will now be described with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0068] Figure 1 This is a functional block diagram of a vehicle provided in an embodiment of this application. For example... Figure 1 As shown, the vehicle 100 may include a sensing system 120, a display device 130, and a computing platform 150. The sensing system 120 may include several sensors for sensing information about the environment surrounding the vehicle 100. For example, the sensing system 120 may include a positioning system, which can be a global navigation satellite system (GNSS), such as GPS or BeiDou. Alternatively, the sensing system 120 may also include one or more of the following: an inertial measurement unit (IMU), lidar, millimeter-wave radar, ultrasonic radar, and a camera device. Furthermore, the sensing system 120 may also include one or more pressure sensors, acoustic sensors, etc., for monitoring whether a user is inside the cabin and the user's location.

[0069] The display devices 130 in the vehicle's cabin 100 are mainly divided into two categories: the first is in-vehicle displays; the second is projection displays, such as head-up displays (HUDs). In-vehicle displays are physical displays and an important component of the in-vehicle infotainment system. Multiple displays can be installed in the cabin, such as digital instrument cluster displays and central control screens. In some possible implementations, one or more of the aforementioned in-vehicle displays can be human-machine interfaces (HMIs), for example, the central control screen can be an HMI. Head-up displays, also known as head-up display systems, are mainly used to display driving information such as speed and navigation on a display device in front of the driver (e.g., the windshield). This reduces the driver's eye-shifting time, avoids pupil changes caused by eye-shifting, and improves driving safety and comfort. HUDs include, for example, combiner-HUD (C-HUD) systems, windshield-HUD (W-HUD) systems, and augmented reality HUD (AR-HUD) systems.

[0070] Some or all of the functions of vehicle 100 can be controlled by computing platform 150. Computing platform 150 may include processors 151 to 15n. A processor is a circuit with signal processing capabilities. In one implementation, the processor can be a circuit with instruction read and execute capabilities, such as a central processing unit (CPU), microprocessor, graphics processing unit (GPU) (which can be understood as a type of microprocessor), or digital signal processor (DSP). In another implementation, the processor can implement certain functions through the logical relationships of hardware circuits. These logical relationships are fixed or reconfigurable. For example, the processor may be a hardware circuit implemented using an application-specific integrated circuit (ASIC) or a programmable logic device (PLD), such as a field-programmable gate array (FPGA). In reconfigurable hardware circuits, the process of the processor loading a configuration document and configuring the hardware circuit can be understood as the process of the processor loading instructions to implement the relevant functions. Furthermore, the processor can also be a hardware circuit designed for artificial intelligence, which can be understood as an ASIC, such as a neural network processing unit (NPU), tensor processing unit (TPU), deep learning processing unit (DPU), etc. In addition, the computing platform 150 may also include a memory for storing instructions. Some or all of the processors 151 to 15n can call the instructions in the memory to implement the corresponding functions.

[0071] The computing platform 150 can control the operation of the intelligent driving system, which may include an advanced driving assistance system (ADAS) and an autonomous driving system (ADS). The intelligent driving system utilizes various sensors on the vehicle (including but not limited to: LiDAR, millimeter-wave radar, cameras, ultrasonic sensors, GPS, and inertial measurement units) to acquire information from the vehicle's surroundings, and analyzes and processes this information to achieve functions such as obstacle perception, target recognition, vehicle localization, path planning, and driver monitoring / alerts, thereby improving the safety, automation, and comfort of driving.

[0072] At different levels of autonomous driving (or intelligent driving levels, ranging from L0 to L5, totaling six levels), intelligent driving systems can achieve different levels of automated driving assistance based on artificial intelligence algorithms and information acquired by multiple sensors. These levels of autonomous driving are based on the classification standards of the Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE). Specifically, L0 is no automation; L1 is driver assistance; L2 is partial automation; L3 is conditional automation; L4 is high automation; and L5 is full automation. At levels L1 to L3, the task of monitoring road conditions and reacting is jointly completed by the driver and the system, requiring the driver to take over dynamic driving tasks. Levels L4 and L5 allow the driver to completely transform into a passenger. Currently, the functions that intelligent driving systems can achieve mainly include, but are not limited to: adaptive cruise control, automatic emergency braking, automatic parking, blind spot monitoring, forward cross-traffic alert / braking, rear cross-traffic alert / braking, forward collision warning, lane departure warning, lane keeping assist, rear collision warning, traffic sign recognition, traffic jam assist, and highway assist. It should be understood that the various functions mentioned above can have specific modes at different levels of autonomous driving (L0-L5), with higher levels of autonomous driving corresponding to more intelligent modes. For example, automatic parking can include APA, RPA, and AVP. With APA, the driver does not need to operate the steering wheel, but still needs to control the accelerator and brake from outside the vehicle; with RPA, the driver can remotely park the vehicle from outside using a terminal (e.g., a mobile phone); with AVP, the vehicle can park without a driver. In terms of corresponding autonomous driving levels, APA is approximately at level L1-L2, RPA is approximately at level L2-L3, and AVP is approximately at level L4.

[0073] In this embodiment, the computing platform 150 can determine the parking position of the vehicle 100 within the target parking space based on the position of obstacles around the target parking space and / or the presence of occupants in the vehicle 100's cabin. Furthermore, the computing platform 150 can control the display device 130 to display a parking space icon indicating the parking position on the parking interface. For example, when the parking position is close to only one boundary of the target parking space, the parking space icon displayed on the display device 130 indicates the boundary of the parking space the vehicle will be close to after parking. In addition, the computing platform 150 can also adjust the parking position of the vehicle 100 within the target parking space in response to user operations and control the display device 130 to switch the display of the parking space icon indicating the updated parking position.

[0074] The following is combined with Figure 2 This application provides a detailed description of the roles of the sensing system 120, display device 130, and computing platform 150. The system 200 includes a sensing module 210, a human-computer interaction module 220, a display module 230, and a control module 240. Specifically:

[0075] The sensing module 210 may include Figure 1 The perception system 120 shown includes one or more camera devices or one or more radar sensors for collecting environmental information about the area where the vehicle is located, such as parking line information and obstacle information. The perception module 210 can also process the collected environmental information to build a world model of roads, obstacles, etc., for downstream modules (such as the human-machine interaction module 220 and the planning and control module 240). Furthermore, the perception module 210 can send the information it collects and / or determines to the planning and control module 240.

[0076] The human-computer interaction module 220 may include Figure 1 One or more of the display devices 130 shown may include, for example, an HMI; the human-computer interaction module 220 may also include a sound-emitting device (such as a speaker, audio jack, etc.) and a sound-receiving device (such as a microphone). The display module 230 may include... Figure 1 One or more of the display devices 130 shown are configured to display a parking interface. The human-machine interface module 230 can receive user commands (including voice commands, touch screen commands, etc.) and then control the changes of the interface displayed by the display module 230 according to the commands.

[0077] The planning and control module 240 may include Figure 1One or more processors in the computing platform 150 shown are used to determine the target parking posture of the vehicle in the target parking space based on environmental information obtained from the perception module 210 and / or the presence information of the occupants in the cabin, and then plan a parking path based on the target parking posture. When the target parking posture is not a centered parking posture, the planning and control module 240 can control the display device to display a parking space icon corresponding to the target parking posture, which indicates the side to which the target parking posture is biased.

[0078] In addition, the display module 230 can display multiple parking positions supported by the target parking space. The human-machine interaction module 220 can determine the parking position as the target parking position based on the instruction received from the user to select a parking position, and send the information of the parking position to the planning and control module 240 so that the planning and control module 240 can plan the parking path based on the target parking position.

[0079] It should be understood that the above module is only an example, and in actual applications, it may be added or removed as needed. For example, Figure 2 In the system architecture shown, the human-computer interaction module 220 and the display module 230 can be combined into one module. For example, the planning and control module 240 can be further divided into a path planning and control module and a display control module. The path planning and control module is used to plan a path for the vehicle and control the vehicle to travel along the planned path, while the display control module is used to control the content displayed by the display module 230.

[0080] Furthermore, the following embodiments use a left-hand drive vehicle (i.e., the driver is located on the left side of the vehicle) as an example for illustration. In actual implementation, the vehicle can also be a right-hand drive vehicle (i.e., the driver is located on the right side of the vehicle).

[0081] The system involved in the embodiments of this application has been described above. The method performed based on the system is described in detail below.

[0082] Figure 3 A schematic flowchart of a parking method provided in an embodiment of this application is shown. The method 300 can be... Figure 1 The vehicle 100 shown can perform the operation, or it can be performed by... Figure 2 The control module 240 shown executes the following method:

[0083] S301, Obtain environmental perception information that indicates the location of obstacles around the target parking space.

[0084] In some implementations, the target parking space is determined before or after executing S301. In this application, the target parking space can be understood as a parking space already selected for vehicle parking under the automatic parking function. For example, vehicle 100 or the control module 240 automatically selects the target parking space based on relevant parking lot information, or vehicle 100 or the control module 240 determines the target parking space in response to the user's selection.

[0085] For example, the environmental perception information also indicates the type of obstacles around the target parking space, such as vehicles, walls, pillars, etc.

[0086] S302, Obtain vehicle presence detection information, which indicates the position of at least one occupant in the vehicle.

[0087] For example, the presence and location of people in different areas of a vehicle can be determined based on signals collected by sensors within the vehicle. For instance, pressure sensors are installed under each seat; if the pressure value measured by a sensor under a particular seat is greater than or equal to a preset pressure threshold, it can be determined that a user is present at that seat. Alternatively, one or more cameras can be installed in the cabin, and the presence of users in different areas of the vehicle can be determined based on images captured by these cameras. In practical implementation, other methods can also be used to determine whether users are present in one or more areas of the vehicle.

[0088] S303, based on environmental perception information and / or in-place detection information, determine the target parking posture of the vehicle in the target parking space as parking posture 1, and control the display device to display the icon of style 1 to indicate parking posture 1.

[0089] More specifically, the target's parking pose can be determined based on environmental perception information and / or in-situ detection information, as well as the target's parking pose.

[0090] In some implementations, without considering the presence of occupants, when obstacles exist around the target parking space, the vehicle's position away from the obstacle can be determined as parking position 1; and / or the position that facilitates opening the driver's side door can be determined as parking position 1. For example, when the priority of the vehicle being away from the obstacle is higher, the target parking position is determined as the position away from the side with the obstacle. In this case, the driver's side of the vehicle may be closer to the parking space boundary, making it inconvenient to open the driver's side door when there is an obstacle next to the target parking space. Conversely, when the priority of facilitating opening the driver's side door is higher, the target parking position is determined as the position of the driver's side away from the parking space boundary. In this case, the passenger side of the vehicle may be closer to the obstacle. In actual implementation, whether the priority of the vehicle being away from the obstacle or the priority of facilitating opening the driver's side door is higher can be preset by the parking system or determined according to the user's intention. The determination based on user intent can be understood as: determining it in response to the user's settings; or, determining it based on the user's historical vehicle usage information. For example, based on the user's parking data over a past period, if it is determined that the user prefers a parking position where the boundary of the parking space is farther from the driver's seat, then the priority for parking positions that facilitate the opening of the driver's side door is higher. Similarly, based on the user's parking data over a past period, if it is determined that the user prefers a parking position farther from obstacles, then the priority for parking positions that move the vehicle away from obstacles is higher. For example, the past period can be a time segment preceding the current moment, such as a period between the past 7 days and the past 30 days, or it can be any other time segment.

[0091] S304, confirm whether berthing has been activated.

[0092] For example, when an instruction to begin parking is received, it is determined that the start of parking has been activated.

[0093] In some implementations, a vehicle can park in a target parking space while the occupants are inside the vehicle; alternatively, it can park in a target parking space when the driver is not present. If the vehicle is parking in a target parking space while the occupants are inside, the activation of parking can be confirmed when a "start parking" voice command is detected in the cabin; alternatively, it can be confirmed when a button used to control parking is clicked. If the vehicle is parking in a target parking space when the driver is not present, the activation of parking can be confirmed when the driver exits the vehicle and closes the door.

[0094] Specifically, if berthing has been activated, execute S307; otherwise, execute S305.

[0095] S305, User action 1 detected.

[0096] For example, operation 1 can be an operation for adjusting the parking posture, or it can be an operation for adjusting the parking position posture. The parking posture refers to the position of the vehicle parked in the target parking space, and can include a centered posture, a left-hand posture, a right-hand posture, etc. The parking position posture is the posture in which the vehicle parks itself into the target parking space, which can be the posture of the front of the vehicle parking in the target parking space (hereinafter referred to as "front entry"), or the posture of the rear of the vehicle parking in the target parking space (hereinafter referred to as "rear entry").

[0097] For example, a left-leaning pose means that the distance between the left side of the vehicle and the boundary of its nearest target parking space is less than the distance between the right side of the vehicle and the boundary of its nearest target parking space; a right-leaning pose means that the distance between the right side of the vehicle and the boundary of its nearest target parking space is less than the distance between the left side of the vehicle and the boundary of its nearest target parking space; a centering pose means that the distance between the left side of the vehicle and the boundary of the target parking space is equal to the distance between the right side of the vehicle and the boundary of the target parking space. The left and right sides of the vehicle can be relative. For example, the left and right sides of the vehicle can be defined based on a vehicle coordinate system. The origin O of the vehicle coordinate system can be located at the projection point of the rear axle center of the vehicle onto the ground. The positive directions of the X-axis and Z-axis are the direction of the vehicle's front and the direction perpendicular to the vehicle's plane, respectively. The side of the vehicle located in the positive direction of the Y-axis can be considered the left side of the vehicle, and the side located in the negative direction of the Y-axis can be considered the right side of the vehicle. Alternatively, the left and right sides of the vehicle can be defined based on the orientation of the target parking space. For example, if the long side of the target parking space is parallel to the meridian, then the side of the vehicle closer to the western long side of the target parking space is the left side, and the side closer to the eastern long side of the target parking space is the right side. In practice, other methods can also be used to define the left and right sides of the vehicle.

[0098] Specifically, if user action 1 is detected, S306 is executed; otherwise, S304 is executed.

[0099] S306, the target parking posture is determined to be changed to parking posture 2.

[0100] In some implementations, if operation 1 is an operation to adjust the target parking posture, and the parking posture of the vehicle away from the obstacle has a higher priority when the vehicle is parked in the target parking space, then the parking space boundary that the vehicle approaches when parking in the target parking space with parking posture 1 is the same as the parking space boundary that the vehicle approaches when parking in the target parking space with parking posture 2.

[0101] In some other implementations, if operation 1 is to adjust the target parking position, and when the vehicle is parked in the target parking space, the parking position that facilitates the opening of the driver's side door has a higher priority, then when the vehicle is parked in the target parking space with parking position 1, the vehicle boundary on the side closest to the parking space boundary is the same as when the vehicle is parked in the target parking space with parking position 2.

[0102] S307, park the vehicle in the target parking space with the target parking posture, so that the vehicle is parked in the target parking space with the target posture.

[0103] To facilitate understanding of Method 300, the following example uses a perpendicular parking space as the target parking space, combined with... Figures 4 to 10 Method 300 is described in detail.

[0104] Figure 4 This illustration shows another schematic flowchart of the parking method provided in the embodiments of this application. This method can be seen as an expanded description of step S303. This method can be considered a specific implementation of determining the target parking pose when the priority of moving the vehicle away from an obstacle is higher. The method includes:

[0105] S401, Identify the target parking space.

[0106] For example, the method for determining the target parking space can be referred to the description in S301, and will not be repeated here.

[0107] S402, determine if there is anyone in the front passenger seat or the right rear seat area.

[0108] For example, the presence detection information determines whether there is a person in the front passenger seat or the right rear seat area. If there is no person in either the front passenger seat or the right rear seat area, S403 is executed; otherwise, S403' is executed.

[0109] S403', confirm that parking position 1 is the center position.

[0110] S403, determine whether there is a pillar or empty space on the long side of the target parking space.

[0111] Understandably, a target parking space can be considered as consisting of two long sides and two short sides. After a vehicle parks in the target parking space, the two long sides can be located on the left and right sides of the vehicle, respectively, and the two short sides can be located on the front and rear sides of the vehicle, respectively.

[0112] For example, the presence of a pillar or empty space on the long side of the target parking space is determined based on environmental perception information. If there are no pillars or empty spaces on either of the two long sides of the target parking space, S404 is executed; otherwise, S404' is executed.

[0113] In some implementations, open space refers to areas that have not been marked as parking spaces; areas with parking lines but no vehicles parked are not considered open space.

[0114] S404', Determine the parking position 1 as a position close to a pillar or open space.

[0115] In one example, if there is a pillar or empty space on one long side of the target parking space, but not on the other long side, parking pose 1 is the parking pose closer to the side with the pillar or empty space. For example, if the long side with the pillar or empty space is located on the left side of the target parking space, then parking pose 1 is the parking pose closer to the left side of the target parking space.

[0116] In another example, when there is a pillar and an empty space on the two long sides of the target parking space, parking pose 1 is the parking pose closer to the side with the pillar. For example, if the long side with the pillar is located on the right side of the target parking space and the long side with the empty space is located on the left side of the target parking space, then parking pose 1 is the parking pose closer to the right side of the target parking space.

[0117] In another example, when there are pillars on both long sides of the target parking space, parking pose 1 can be a pose where the car is centered between the two pillars. When there is empty space on both long sides of the target parking space, parking pose 1 can be a pose where the car is centered within the target parking space.

[0118] S404, Determine if there is a wall on the long side of the target parking space.

[0119] For example, it is determined whether there is a wall on the long side of the target parking space based on environmental perception information. If there is no wall on either of the two long sides of the target parking space, S405 is executed; otherwise, S405' is executed.

[0120] S405', Determine the parking position 1 as the position away from the wall.

[0121] In one example, if there is a wall on one long side of the target parking space and no wall on the other long side, parking pose 1 is the parking pose away from the side with the wall. For example, if the long side with the wall is located on the left side of the target parking space, then parking pose 1 is the parking pose away from the left side of the target parking space.

[0122] In another example, when there are walls on both long sides of the target parking space, parking pose 1 can be a pose of parking in the center within the target parking space; or, parking pose 1 can also be a pose of parking in the center in front of the two walls.

[0123] S405 indicates that a vehicle is parked along one of the long sides of the target parking space.

[0124] For example, based on environmental perception information, it is determined whether there is a vehicle parked in the adjacent parking space on the long side of the target parking space. If there is a vehicle parked in the adjacent parking space on one of the long sides of the target parking space, S406' is executed; otherwise, S406' is executed.

[0125] In some implementations, when vehicles are parked in adjacent parking spaces on both long sides of the target parking space, parking pose 1 can be determined based on the positional relationship between the vehicles on both sides and the target parking space. For example, if the distance between the outer contour of the vehicles on both long sides of the target parking space and the boundary of the target parking space is greater than or equal to distance 1, parking pose 1 can be determined as a centered parking pose within the target parking space. As another example, if the distance between the outer contour of a vehicle parked on one long side of the target parking space and the boundary of the target parking space is less than distance 1, while the distance between the outer contour of a vehicle parked on the other long side and the boundary of the target parking space is greater than or equal to distance 1, parking pose 1 can be determined as a parking pose away from the long side of the target parking space that is closer to the vehicle.

[0126] S406, confirm parking position 1 as centered position.

[0127] For example, the centering pose can be a pose in which the car is parked in the center within the target parking space.

[0128] S406', Determine the parking position 1 as the position away from the side where vehicles are parked.

[0129] In some implementations, the left or right side of the target parking space in this application embodiment can be the left or right side relative to the vehicle. For example, after the vehicle is parked in the target parking space, the left side of the vehicle is the left side of the target parking space, and the right side of the vehicle is the right side of the target parking space. Alternatively, the left and right sides of the target parking space can also be determined based on the orientation of the target parking space. For example, if the long side of the target parking space is parallel to a meridian, then the western long side of the target parking space is the left side of the target parking space, and the eastern long side of the target parking space is the left side of the target parking space. In actual implementation, the left or right side of the target parking space can also be defined in other ways.

[0130] For example, Figure 5 This illustration shows a schematic diagram of an application scenario related to an embodiment of this application. For example... Figure 5 As shown in (a), there are parking spaces on both the left and right sides of the target parking space, and a vehicle is parked in the parking space on the right side of the target parking space, while no vehicle is parked in the parking space on the left side of the target parking space. Therefore, according to... Figure 4 The method shown can determine the parking pose 1 as follows: Figure 5 The parking position shown in (b) is the one parked to the left of the target parking space. Further, if it is detected that the user has changed the target parking position to center parking, the vehicle's position in the target parking space after parking will be as follows: Figure 5 As shown in (c) in the figure.

[0131] In some implementations, the target parking position can also be determined based on user preferences. In one example, for a specific parking space, after recommending parking position 1 as the target parking position to the user, if the user changes their parking position to 2, then when that parking space is subsequently identified as the target parking space, parking position 2 will be determined as the target parking position. For example, for... Figure 5 The target parking space shown is determined to be the center position when the user selects this parking space again. In another example, for target parking spaces of the same type, the user's preferred parking position is statistically analyzed, and then when another parking space of the same type is identified as a target parking space, the target parking position is determined based on the user's preferred parking position. For example, for target parking spaces with pillars and empty spaces on their two long sides respectively, if the user prefers to park closer to the empty space, then when other parking spaces of the same type are identified as target parking spaces, the target parking position is determined as parking position 1, which is the parking position closer to the side with empty space.

[0132] To clearly indicate the vehicle's parking position after it has been parked in the target parking space, an icon displaying the parking position can be shown on the display device after the target parking position is determined. Taking the vehicle's central control screen as an example... Figure 6 This illustration shows a graphical user interface (GUI) provided in an embodiment of this application. In an automatic parking scenario, given that the target parking space and target parking posture have been determined, the GUI displayed on the central control screen can be as follows: Figure 6As shown in (a), the interface includes a content display area 510 and a function bar 520. The content display area 510 includes the following status indicator icons: battery level icon, Bluetooth function icon, Wi-Fi function icon, and cellular network signal icon, which respectively indicate the vehicle's system login status, remaining battery level, Bluetooth on and / or connected status, Wi-Fi on status, and cellular network signal strength. The content display area 510 also includes a parking control interface 530 and a real-time environmental information display interface 540. The parking control interface 530 is used to determine the target parking space in response to user operations, and / or to activate the automatic parking function in response to user operations to control the vehicle to park in the target parking space. More specifically, given a determined target parking space and target parking posture, the parking control interface 530 includes components 531, 532, and an icon 533. Component 531 includes three controls for adjusting the target parking posture: a left-alignment control, a center-alignment control, and a right-alignment control. Component 532 includes two controls for initiating the process of parking the vehicle into the target parking space. Icon 533 indicates the location of the target parking space; additionally, icon 533 can also indicate that the target parking posture is a rear-entry. The real-time environmental information display interface 540 displays real-time environmental information during the vehicle parking process. This real-time environmental information can be real-time footage captured by the vehicle's camera device, or it can be a virtual environment constructed based on information perceived by the vehicle's perception system. This virtual environment indicates the location of obstacles around the vehicle and / or parking space information. The function bar 520 includes a homepage icon, seat controls, air conditioning controls, and volume controls, which are used to control the content display area 510 to display the homepage, control the on / off switch of seat ventilation and / or adjust the air volume of seat ventilation, control the on / off switch of air conditioning and / or adjust the air conditioning temperature and heating / cooling status, adjust the air circulation status in the vehicle, and adjust the volume of the sound device.

[0133] It should be noted that the three controls in component 531 have the following functions: the left-align control is used to park the vehicle in the target parking space in a left-aligned position, the right-align control is used to park the vehicle in the target parking space in a right-aligned position, and the center control is used to park the vehicle in the center of the target parking space.

[0134] For example, if the target parking position is determined to be a right-hand position and the target parking entry position is a rear-entry position, then the boundary of the target parking space corresponding to line 533-a can be determined as the boundary that the vehicle approaches when parking in the target parking space. Further, as... Figure 6 As shown in (a), line 533-a is displayed in a different color than the corresponding lines of the other boundaries of the target parking space, so that the user can know the target parking position of the vehicle in the parking space. In addition, the right-aligned control in component 531 is selected, and the left-aligned and center-aligned components are optional, to indicate to the user that the target parking position is a right-aligned position.

[0135] In some implementations, if detected Figure 6 When the left-hand control shown in (a) is clicked, the control panel displays the following: Figure 6 The parking interface shown in (b) uses icon 533' to indicate the target parking space. Icon 533' includes line 533-b, which indicates the boundary that the vehicle is close to when parked in the target parking space.

[0136] In some implementations, such as Figure 7 As shown in (a), icon 533 also includes control 534, which is used to adjust the parking posture. In one example, when control 534 is clicked, the target parking posture is determined to change to rear-entry; in another example, when a voice command for adjusting the target parking posture, such as "Please park rear-entry," is detected, the target parking posture is determined to change to rear-entry; in yet another example, when other operations for adjusting the target parking posture are detected, the target parking posture is determined to change to rear-entry. Furthermore, after the target parking posture changes to rear-entry, the boundary the vehicle approaches when parking in the target parking space remains unchanged. At this time, icon 533 can become... Figure 7 Icon 533", shown in (b) of the diagram, indicates that the target parking position is head-in, and includes line 533-a', which indicates the boundary the vehicle approaches when parking in the target space. Since the boundary the vehicle approaches when parking in the target space remains unchanged, the target parking position changes from a right-hand position to a left-hand position, and component 531 changes from being selected by the right-hand control to being selected by the left-hand control. It should be understood that after the parking position is adjusted, the vehicle needs to replan its parking path and update the parking path in the parking interface. For example, when the parking position is tail-in, the parking path is... Figure 7 The path indicated by line 535 in (a) is updated to the following after the parking position is changed to head-in. Figure 7 The path indicated by line 536 shown in (b) is shown in the diagram.

[0137] In one example, after adjusting the parking position to head-in, if the user still wants the right side of the vehicle to be closer to the boundary of the target parking space than the left side when parking, they can click the right-align control to adjust the target parking position. When the right-align control is detected as clicked, such as... Figure 7 As shown in (c), the right-aligned control in component 531 becomes selected, the left-aligned control and the center-aligned control are unselected, and the icon indicating the target parking space becomes icon 537, which includes lines 533-c indicating the boundary that the vehicle is close to when parked in the target parking space.

[0138] In another example, after adjusting the parking pose to head-in, if the user still wants the vehicle to be centered in the target parking space, they can click the center control to adjust the target parking pose. When the center control is detected as clicked, such as... Figure 7 As shown in (d), the center control in component 531 becomes selected, the left and right controls are unselected, and the icon indicating the target parking space becomes icon 538. Since the vehicle does not approach either long side when parked in the target parking space, icon 538 does not include the line indicating the boundary that the vehicle approaches when parked in the target parking space.

[0139] In some other implementations, when detecting such Figure 7 When control 534 shown in (a) is clicked, or when other operations adjusting the target parking pose are detected, the target parking pose is determined to change to tail-in. If the target parking pose remains unchanged, the boundary the vehicle approaches when parking in the target parking space changes to the opposite side of the original approach boundary. At this time, icon 533 can change to... Figure 7 Icon 537, shown in (c), indicates a head-in parking position and includes line 533-c, which indicates the boundary that the vehicle approaches when parking in the target parking space.

[0140] Understandably, when the system or user sets the parking system to: adjust the target parking position without changing the parking space boundary the vehicle is closest to when parking in the target parking space; or, when there is no obstacle on one side of the parking space boundary indicated by line 533-a, but an obstacle exists on the opposite side of the parking space boundary indicated by line 533-a, and the parking system is set to prioritize moving the vehicle away from the obstacle, the vehicle control display will show... Figure 7 When the interface shown in (a) detects a command to adjust the target's docking pose, it can control the display device to show the information. Figure 7 The interface shown in (b) is as follows. When the system or user sets the parking system to: always keep the same side (e.g., left or right) of the vehicle closer to the parking space boundary when adjusting the target parking position; or when the parking system is set to prioritize facilitating the opening of the driver's side door, the vehicle control display will show... Figure 7 When the interface shown in (a) detects a command to adjust the target's docking pose, it can control the display device to show the information. Figure 7 The interface shown in (c) is shown in the image.

[0141] It should be noted that, Figure 6 and Figure 7The controls and icons shown in the interface are for illustrative purposes only. In actual implementation, the content display area 510 and function bar 520 may display more or fewer icons. In one example, the content display area 510 may display some or all of the Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, and cellular signal icons, or may not display them, depending on the user's settings. In another example, the function bar 520 may display other styles of icons based on the user's settings for seat ventilation and air conditioning status. Furthermore, the parking control interface 530 may also display other controls, such as controls for activating the panoramic surround view function. Additionally, the icons displayed in the content display area 510 may also be of other styles; for example, the icon for the target parking space may be of a different style. Figure 7 The control 534 shown for adjusting the target parking position may not be set in the target parking space icon. It can be set in other locations on the parking interface or in other parking interfaces. This application does not limit this.

[0142] After parking begins, the parking control interface 530 can maintain the display of lines indicating the boundary the vehicle is approaching when parking in the target parking space, for example, as shown. Figure 8 The highlighted line enclosed by the dashed box 801 indicates the boundary the vehicle is approaching when parking in the target parking space. Furthermore, when the target parking space is included in the real-time environment information display interface 540, the interface can also display elements indicating the boundary the vehicle is approaching when parking in the target parking space, such as overlaying an invisible wall (e.g., an air wall) at the corresponding boundary of the target parking space. Figure 8 (As shown in element 802) to enhance the user's perception of relevant boundaries.

[0143] In some implementations, after the user determines the target parking position and the target parking position, the process of parking the vehicle into the target parking space can be initiated by clicking the controls in component 532. For example, when the "Start Parking" control in component 532 is clicked, the vehicle is controlled to park into the target parking space along the planned parking path. As another example, when the "Leave Parking" control in component 532 is clicked, if the driver is detected to have exited the vehicle and all vehicle doors are closed within a certain time period, the vehicle is controlled to park into the target parking space along the planned parking path. This "certain time period" can be between 3 and 5 minutes, or it can be any other duration.

[0144] In some implementations, after the user determines the target parking position and the target parking orientation, the vehicle can be controlled to park in the target parking space via electronic devices associated with the vehicle. These electronic devices can include various handheld devices, wearable devices, computing devices, or other processing devices connected to a wireless modem with wireless communication capabilities. For example, they can be watches, mobile phones, tablets, etc. The following explanation uses a mobile phone as an example.

[0145] Figure 9 and Figure 10 Another schematic diagram of the GUI involved in the embodiments of this application is shown. For example... Figure 9 As shown in (a), after determining the target parking space, target parking position, and target parking position, the vehicle sends indication information to the mobile phone indicating the target parking space, target parking position, and target parking position. Based on the received indication information, the mobile phone controls the display screen to show an icon indicating the target parking space. This icon also indicates the vehicle's target parking position, target parking position, and the boundary of the target parking space that the vehicle is approaching when parking in the target parking space. In some implementations, the parking interface displayed on the mobile phone may also include controls for controlling parking, such as... Figure 9 As shown in (b), the parking interface includes a start parking control. When the control is clicked, the mobile phone sends a command to the vehicle instructing it to start parking. When the vehicle receives the command, it controls the vehicle to park in the target parking space.

[0146] In some implementations, the target parking pose and target stopping pose of the vehicle can also be adjusted via electronic devices, for example... Figure 10 The interface shown in (a) also includes left-align, center, and right-align controls for adjusting the target parking position, and a "Start Parking" control for initiating the parking process. After the left-align and "Start Parking" controls are detected to be clicked sequentially, the phone's screen displays as shown below. Figure 10 The parking interface shown in (b) is shown in the image.

[0147] It should be noted that users can click the "Start Parking" control from inside the vehicle, or they can click it from outside the vehicle. For example, a user can click it from inside the cabin... Figure 6 and / or Figure 7 After determining the target parking position and the target parking position, you can start the parking process by clicking the start parking control on your mobile phone without clicking any control in component 532, getting out of the car and closing the door.

[0148] For example, associating the aforementioned electronic device with a vehicle may include: the account used to log in to the electronic device and the vehicle being the same; or, although the accounts used to log in to the electronic device and the vehicle are different, both being accounts belonging to an authorized user of the vehicle; or, the electronic device being authorized by an authorized user of the vehicle, thereby establishing an association between the vehicle and the electronic device. Associating the electronic device with a vehicle may also include: the ability for the electronic device and the vehicle to transmit information via mobile communication technologies such as Global System for Mobile Communication (GSM), General Packet Radio Service (GPRS), and Long Term Evolution (LTE), such as information transmission between the electronic device and the vehicle via a cloud server; or, the ability for the electronic device and the vehicle to transmit information via short-range wireless communication technologies such as Bluetooth (BT) and radio frequency identification (RFID).

[0149] It should be noted that the above embodiments are illustrated using a perpendicular parking space as an example. The parking method provided in this application can also be applied to parallel parking spaces and angled parking spaces. For specific implementation, please refer to the description in the above embodiments, which will not be repeated here.

[0150] Figure 11 This illustration shows another schematic flowchart of the parking method provided in the embodiments of this application, which can be performed by... Figure 1 The method is executed by the vehicle 100 shown, or it may be executed by electronic devices associated with the vehicle 100, or it may be executed by... Figure 2 The method 1000, executed by the control module 240, includes:

[0151] S1010, Obtain first information, the first information indicating that when the vehicle is parked in the target parking space, the distance between the first boundary of the target parking space and the outer contour of the vehicle is less than the distance between the second boundary of the target parking space and the outer contour of the vehicle.

[0152] Wherein, the first parking space boundary and the second parking space boundary are the longer boundaries of the target parking spaces. For example, the first parking space boundary and the second parking space boundary can be respectively Figure 5 The left and right boundaries of the parking space are shown.

[0153] S1020, according to the first information, control the first display device to display the first icon, the first icon is the icon of the target parking space, and the first icon includes an enhanced display first boundary, the enhanced display first boundary indicates that the vehicle is close to the first parking space boundary when parking in the target parking space.

[0154] It should be noted that the target parking space includes multiple parking space boundaries (e.g., at least three boundaries), and correspondingly, the first icon may also include multiple boundaries. Therefore, the aforementioned "enhanced display" refers to an enhanced display compared to the other boundaries in the first icon besides the first boundary. For example, the first boundary can be displayed using a style different from the other boundaries in the first icon. For instance, the first boundary might be a different color than the other boundaries in the first icon, with the first boundary being more prominent; or the first boundary could be highlighted while the other boundaries in the first icon are not highlighted; or a prominent animation effect could be set for the first boundary while no animation effect is set for the other boundaries in the first icon. In other words, in actual implementation, the target parking space icon may be more prominent than other parking space icons, but the first boundary in the target parking space icon will be more prominent than the boundaries of the other icons in the target parking space icon.

[0155] In one example, when the method is executed by an electronic device or its components, the first information can be sent by the vehicle to the electronic device via a cloud server. The first information instructs the electronic device to display that when the vehicle is parked in the target parking space, the distance between the first boundary of the target parking space and the vehicle's outline is less than the distance between the second boundary of the target parking space and the vehicle's outline. Further, the first information can be semantic information describing the vehicle's pose information when parked in the target parking space, including the target parking pose and information indicating the target parking pose; the first information can also be an icon or image, such as... Figure 10 If the target parking space icon is shown in (a) or (b) in the diagram, then the first boundary is the black boundary of the target parking space icon.

[0156] In another example, when the method is executed by a vehicle or its components, the first information includes information indicating a target parking posture and information indicating a target parking posture; wherein, the target parking posture indicates the posture of the vehicle when parking into the target parking space; the target parking posture indicates the positional relationship between the vehicle's outline and the target parking space when the vehicle is parked in the target parking space; and the first display device is the vehicle's display device. Exemplarily, the first icon can be... Figure 6 If the target parking space icon is shown in (a) above, then the first boundary is line 533-a; or, the first icon can be... Figure 6 If the target parking space icon is shown in (b) above, then the first boundary is line 533-b; or, the first icon can be... Figure 7 If any one of the target parking space icons shown in (a) to (c) is a line 533-a, line 533-a' or line 533-c respectively.

[0157] In some implementations, the method further includes: acquiring parking intention information, which indicates that the vehicle's preferred target parking posture is at least one of the following: a parking posture away from obstacles around the target parking space, or a parking posture that facilitates the opening of the door on the driver's side; and determining the parking space boundary of the target parking space that the vehicle is close to when parking in the target parking space based on the parking intention information and the target parking posture.

[0158] In one example, the parking intent information is determined in response to the user's settings for the vehicle. In another example, the parking intent information is determined based on predefined information from the parking system. A more specific method for determining the parking space boundary to which the vehicle will approach when parking in the target parking space based on the parking intent information can be found in the description of method 300, and will not be repeated here.

[0159] In some implementations, the first icon further indicates that the target parking posture is a first parking posture, which is either head-in or tail-in parking. The method further includes: in response to a first instruction indicating adjustment of the target parking posture, determining to change the target parking posture from the first parking posture to a second parking posture, which is either head-in or tail-in parking, and the second parking posture is different from the first parking posture; controlling a first display device to display a second icon, which is an icon of the target parking space, the second icon including an enhanced second boundary, the enhanced second boundary indicating that the vehicle is parked in the target parking space and is close to the second parking space boundary when parked in the target parking space.

[0160] For example, the first icon is Figure 7 The icon 533 shown indicates that the first berthing pose is tail berthing, and the enhanced display's first boundary can be... Figure 7 The line shown is 533-a; further, the second icon is... Figure 7 Icon 537 is shown. The second docking pose is head docking. The enhanced display of the second boundary can be... Figure 7 The line shown is 533-c. That is to say, when the rear of the vehicle is parked in the target parking space, the right side of the vehicle is closer to the long side of the target parking space; when the front of the vehicle is parked in the target parking space, the right side of the vehicle is still closer to the long side of the target parking space.

[0161] In some implementations, the first icon further indicates that the target parking posture is a first parking posture, which is either head-in or tail-in parking. The method further includes: in response to a second instruction indicating an adjustment of the target parking posture, determining to change the target parking posture from the first parking posture to a second parking posture, which is either head-in or tail-in parking, and the second parking posture is different from the first parking posture; controlling a first display device to display a third icon, which is an icon of the target parking space, and the third icon includes a first boundary for enhanced display.

[0162] For example, the first icon is Figure 7 The icon 533 shown indicates that the first berthing pose is tail berthing, and the enhanced display's first boundary can be... Figure 7 The line shown is 533-a; further, the third icon is... Figure 7 The icon 533 shown indicates that the second docking pose is head docking, and the first boundary for enhanced display can be... Figure 7 The line 533-a' is shown. That is, when the rear of the vehicle is parked in the target parking space, the right side of the vehicle is closer to the long side of the target parking space; when the front of the vehicle is parked in the target parking space, the left side of the vehicle is closer to the long side of the target parking space.

[0163] Furthermore, the first icon is determined when the target parking posture is a first parking posture, which indicates that when the vehicle is parked in the target parking space, the distance between the vehicle's outline and the boundary of the first parking space is less than the distance between the vehicle's outline and the boundary of the second parking space; the method also includes: determining to change the target parking posture to a second parking posture based on the second parking posture and the boundary of the first parking space, the second parking posture indicating that when the vehicle is parked in the target parking space, it is close to the boundary of the first parking space; wherein, the third icon also indicates the second parking posture.

[0164] For example, the third icon is Figure 7 Taking the icon 533 as an example, the vehicle outline in the third icon can indicate the target parking position; or the target parking position can also be indicated by other icons.

[0165] In some implementations, the first icon is determined when the target parking posture is a first parking posture, which indicates that when the vehicle is parked in the target parking space, the distance between the vehicle's outline and the boundary of the first parking space is less than the distance between the vehicle's outline and the boundary of the second parking space. The method further includes: in response to a second instruction indicating adjustment of the target parking posture, determining to change the target parking posture to a third parking posture; and according to the third parking posture, controlling a first display device to display a fourth icon, the fourth icon including an enhanced third boundary, the enhanced third boundary indicating that the vehicle is close to the boundary of the second parking space when parked in the target parking space.

[0166] For example, the first icon is Figure 7 The icon 533 shown indicates that the first parking position is left-hand parking, and the first boundary of the enhanced display can be... Figure 7 The line shown is 533-a'; further, the fourth icon is... Figure 7 The icon 537 shown indicates that the third parking position is right-hand parking, and the first boundary of the enhanced display can be... Figure 7The line shown is 533-c.

[0167] In one example, environmental perception information and / or in-situ detection information are acquired. The environmental perception information indicates the position of obstacles around the target parking space, and the in-situ detection information indicates the presence of occupants inside the vehicle. Based on the environmental perception information and / or in-situ detection information, a first parking pose is determined. For a detailed implementation of determining the target parking pose based on environmental perception information and / or in-situ detection information, please refer to [reference needed]. Figure 4 The descriptions in the methods shown will not be repeated here. In some implementations, the first parking pose is determined based on environmental perception information and / or in-situ detection information, as well as parking intention information. For example, the first parking pose can be parking pose 1 in method 300. The specific implementation of determining the target parking pose by combining parking intention information can be found in the description in S303, which will not be repeated here.

[0168] In another example, the method further includes: determining a first parking pose based on the user's historical parking information; wherein the historical parking information indicates the user's preferred parking pose. For an illustrative example, the specific implementation of determining the target parking pose based on historical parking information can be found in [reference needed]. Figure 5 The descriptions of the corresponding parts will not be repeated here.

[0169] In some implementations, the method further includes: planning a parking path based on the target parking position and the target parking position; controlling the vehicle to park in the target parking space along the parking path and park in the target parking space with the target parking position.

[0170] In some implementations, the method further includes: during the process of controlling the vehicle to park in the target parking space, controlling a first display device to display a first interface and / or a second interface, the first interface including at least one control for controlling parking, and the second interface including real-time video during the parking process; the first interface including an icon of the target parking space, the icon of the target parking space including an enhanced icon boundary, the enhanced icon boundary indicating the parking space boundary that the vehicle approaches when parking in the target parking space in the target parking position.

[0171] In one example, the first interface can be the parking control interface 530 in the aforementioned embodiment, and the second interface can be the real-time environmental information display interface 540. In another example, the first interface can also be the parking control interface displayed on the screen of an electronic device; and the second interface can be the real-time image interface displayed on the screen of an electronic device.

[0172] In some implementations, the method further includes: when the second interface includes pixels of the first boundary of the target parking space, controlling the second interface to display a first effect, the first effect indicating the position of the parking space boundary that the vehicle is close to when parking in the target parking space in the real-time image.

[0173] For example, the first effect can be Figure 8 The effect corresponding to element 802 in the text.

[0174] The parking method provided in this application embodiment, by enhancing the display of the first boundary, can indicate to the user the boundary of the parking space that the vehicle will approach after parking in the target parking space. This allows the user to determine the side of the target parking space boundary that the vehicle will approach after parking in the target parking space based on the vehicle's parking posture, reducing the probability of the user incorrectly selecting the parking space boundary that the vehicle needs to approach when the user's left and right perception is unclear. This helps to improve parking efficiency and the user's parking experience.
