Parking Support Confirmation Control With Single Driver Input
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing parking support systems require multiple confirmations from the driver for parking region and safety, which can be cumbersome and time-consuming, especially for skilled drivers familiar with the system.
Innovation Solution
A parking support apparatus that allows for a single operation by the driver to confirm both the parking region and the safety of the confirmation required region, simplifying the parking support process through advanced confirmation methods and reducing the time required for initiating parking support control.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If multiple separate confirmations are required for parking region and safety, then the safety and reliability of parking operation is improved, but the operation complexity and time consumption increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent combines multiple confirmation operations (parking region confirmation and safety confirmation) into a single integrated confirmation input. When the driver provides one confirmation input, the system simultaneously validates both the parking region and the safety conditions, thereby maintaining safety requirements while reducing operational complexity and time consumption.
Solution Approach 2:
The confirmation mechanism is designed to serve multiple functions simultaneously. A single confirmation operation from the driver triggers comprehensive validation including parking region verification, safety condition assessment, and path clearance confirmation, making the confirmation process multi-functional rather than requiring separate dedicated confirmations for each aspect.
2Measurement precision
If multiple separate confirmations are required for parking region and safety, then the accuracy of confirmation is improved, but the time required for parking support control initiation increases
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs preliminary validation of multiple conditions simultaneously when a single confirmation is received. Rather than sequentially checking parking region, safety conditions, and path clearance in separate steps, the system is pre-configured to evaluate all these conditions in parallel upon receiving one confirmation input, thereby maintaining comprehensive accuracy while reducing the time required for control initiation.
Solution Approach 2:
The confirmation process maintains continuous validation of all necessary conditions without interruption or sequential delays. The system continuously monitors and validates parking region, safety conditions, and path clearance simultaneously, ensuring that all confirmations are processed in an uninterrupted flow rather than through discrete time-consuming steps.
3Productivity
If a single operation is used for both parking region and safety confirmation, then the ease of operation and productivity are improved, but the complexity of processing multiple confirmations increases
Solution Approach 1:
The system introduces an intermediary processing layer that receives the single confirmation input and automatically distributes it to multiple validation modules. This intermediary confirmation processing unit acts as a mediator that translates one driver input into coordinated validation of parking region, safety conditions, and path clearance, thereby simplifying the user interface while managing the underlying processing complexity through structured intermediation.

AI summary
A parking support apparatus includes a display control unit, a confirmation reception unit, and a parking control unit that performs a parking support control of a vehicle when a confirmation reception unit receives a parking region confirmation and a confirmation required region confirmation, and the confirmation reception unit simultaneously receives a single operation of the driver of the vehicle as the parking region confirmation and the confirmation required region confirmation.
