A method for providing vehicle assistance to a vehicle when parking in a parking lot is provided. The method includes identifying, by the path controller, one or more available parking spaces based on the one or more images. The method includes displaying, on a user interface in communication with the path controller, a representation of the identified one or more available parking spaces, and receiving, on the user interface, a driver selection of a representation of the identified one or more available parking spaces. The method includes determining, by the path controller, a path from a current position of the vehicle to an available parking space associated with the driver selection of the representation. The method includes instructing, a drive system of the vehicle, to autonomously drive the vehicle along the path.

Unmanned aerial vehicle assisted system for vehicle reverse and parking

A method for determining a location of a vehicle is provided. The method includes receiving, at data processing hardware, a first set of vehicle system data from one or more vehicles. The method also includes determining, at the data processing hardware, a data model based on the first set of vehicle system data. Additionally, the method includes receiving, at the data processing hardware, a second set of vehicle system data associated with the vehicle. The vehicle being different than the one or more vehicles. The method includes determining, using the data processing hardware, a vehicle location based on the second set of vehicle system data and the data model. The method includes displaying, on a user interface of the vehicle in communication with the data processing hardware, the vehicle location.

Vehicle localization based on neural network

A method of maneuvering a vehicle in reverse for attachment to a trailer is disclosed. The method includes receiving one or more images from one or more cameras positioned on a back portion of the vehicle and identifying one or more trailers within the one or more images. The method also includes receiving an indication of a selected trailer from the one or more trailers. Additionally, the method includes determining a vehicle path from an initial position to a final position. The vehicle path includes maneuvers configured to direct the vehicle in a rearward direction along the vehicle path from the initial position to the final position. The method also includes executing one or more behaviors causing the vehicle to take an action to autonomously follow the vehicle path and execute the maneuvers.

Autonomous trailer hitching using neural network

A method for generating a super-resolved high-resolution image based on a low-resolution image is provided. The method includes receiving a low-resolution image having a first image size from a camera, and determining an interpolated image of the low-resolution image. The interpolated image has a second image size being greater than the first image size. The method also includes determining a high-resolution super-resolved image based on the interpolated image and model data. The model data is stored on memory hardware. The method also includes displaying, on a user interface, the high-resolution super-resolved image.

Deep neural network for image enhancement

One aspect of the disclosure provides a method of maneuvering a vehicle in reverse for attachment to a trailer. The method includes: determining, at a computing device in communication with the neural network, a selected trailer in proximity to the vehicle; detecting at least one user input gesture performed by a user and captured in at least one image from at least one camera on the vehicle; selected a maneuver command for the vehicle based on the detected gesture; and executing the maneuver to move the vehicle from the initial position toward a final position adjacent the trailer.
