Remote Parking Control Around the Vehicle User Position
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing parking assistance systems fail to account for the position of the vehicle user when they are outside the vehicle, leading to potential collisions and an unsafe parking experience.
Innovation Solution
A method that captures the position of the vehicle user using various technologies, adjusts the vehicle's target position and motion path to avoid collisions, and provides user feedback to ensure safe and efficient parking operations.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Extent of automation
If the parking assistance system maneuvers the vehicle in a remote-controlled manner without considering the vehicle user's position, then the parking operation can be performed automatically, but the vehicle user may be located in the vehicle motion path or target position causing collision risk
Solution Approach 1:
The system captures the vehicle user's position before the parking maneuver begins and uses this information to plan the motion path and target position in advance, preventing collision risk before it occurs
Solution Approach 2:
The system continuously monitors the vehicle user's position during the parking operation and adjusts the motion path or target position in real-time based on the user's location, ensuring safety while maintaining automation
2Object-affected harmful factors
If the vehicle target position and motion path are adjusted to avoid the vehicle user, then collision risk is reduced, but the parking operation becomes more complex and time-consuming
Solution Approach 1:
The system dynamically adjusts the motion path and target position based on the vehicle user's location, allowing flexible adaptation without requiring a completely complex re-planning of the parking maneuver
3Object-affected harmful factors
If the vehicle target position and motion path are adjusted to avoid the vehicle user, then collision risk is reduced, but the parking operation takes more time
Solution Approach 1:
The system captures the vehicle user's position in advance and pre-calculates alternative motion paths or target positions, so that adjustments can be made quickly without significant time loss during the actual parking maneuver

AI summary
A method of controlling a parking operation of a vehicle by a parking assistańce system involves:capturing the position of a vehicle user located close to but outside of the vehicle;determining a provisional target position and a provisional motion path for the vehicle based on a vehicle starting position and the position of the vehicle user;checking whether the provisional target position and/or the motion of the vehicle into the provisional target position along the provisional motion path would cause a collision with the vehicle user; andif a result of the checking is affirmative, then changing the provisional target position and/or the provisional motion path so that no collision with the vehicle user will occur at the changed target position and/or along the changed motion path.
