Parking Retry Notification Control for Automatic Steering
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing traffic safety systems for automatic vehicle parking often issue excessive notifications that bother users, lacking effective mechanisms to prevent unnecessary alerts during the parking process.
Innovation Solution
A control device and movement control system that includes a retry determination unit and notification control unit, which determine when to execute retry control and transmit notifications to a terminal device only after the vehicle has partially reached the target position, ensuring that notifications are relevant and minimizing user disturbance.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If the system issues notifications for retry control during automatic parking, then the user is informed of system actions, but excessive notifications may bother the user
Solution Approach 1:
The system changes the parameter of notification timing based on the vehicle's position relative to the target parking space. Notifications are issued selectively based on whether the vehicle has reached the target position, transforming a static notification approach into a dynamic one that adapts to the parking process stage.
Solution Approach 2:
Different notification behaviors are applied to different stages of the parking process. When the vehicle has reached the target position, notifications are issued to inform users of retry control. When the vehicle has not reached the target position, notifications are suppressed to avoid disturbing users during normal operation.
2Loss of information
If the system provides detailed notifications about retry control, then the user is kept informed, but the complexity of the notification system increases
Solution Approach 1:
The notification system extracts and issues only the critical information needed at each stage of the parking process. Instead of providing continuous detailed notifications, the system selectively outputs retry control information only when the vehicle reaches the target position, simplifying the overall notification architecture.
3Speed
If the system issues retry notifications early in the parking process, then the user can respond promptly, but unnecessary notifications are sent before the vehicle reaches the target position
Solution Approach 1:
The system prepares the notification mechanism in advance but delays actual notification issuance until the appropriate condition is met (vehicle reaching target position). This preliminary preparation ensures fast response when needed while avoiding premature notifications that would constitute waste.

AI summary
A control device includes: a retry determination unit configured to determine whether to execute retry control based on a current position of a moving object and a target position when the moving object is moved to the target position by automatic steering; and a notification control unit configured to transmit a retry notification, including information indicating that the retry control is to be executed based on a determination result of the retry determination unit, to a terminal device. The notification control unit transmits the retry notification to the terminal device when the retry control, executed after at least a part of the moving object reaches the target position, is determined, and the notification control unit does not transmit the retry notification to the terminal device when the retry control, executed before at least a part of the moving object reaches the target position, is determined.
