A parking assist device according to an embodiment includes: a peripheral image generation unit configured to generate a peripheral image representing conditions around a vehicle based on an imaging result of an imaging unit provided to the vehicle; a parking region acquisition unit configured to acquire a parking region where the vehicle is parkable; a display processing unit configured to display the peripheral image on a display device including a touch panel, and display a first symbol representing the parking region on the peripheral image; and an assist processing unit configured to start, when a position corresponding to the first symbol on the touch panel is touched, parking assist control for assisting parking at the parking region represented by the first symbol.

Parking assist device, parking assist method, and driving assist device

At a time when it is possible for a user's own vehicle to pull out from a parking space, an assist control unit of a parking exit assist device terminates an assist control in the event that the user's own vehicle has traveled forward by a predetermined distance (a minimum forward distance) from a predetermined position (a most recent intermediate position or an assist starting position).

Device for assisting a vehicle with exiting a parking space

An image processing device () is for extracting pixels of a specific color from an image to be processed, and includes: a pixel information extraction unit () that extracts values of luminance, first chrominance, and second chrominance of pixels composing the image on a pixel-by-pixel basis; a calculation processing unit () that calculates, on a pixel-by-pixel basis, a distance from a point defined by the extracted values to a preset reference plane in a space in which the luminance, the first chrominance, and the second chrominance are set along axes that are perpendicular to one another; and a converted image generation unit () that generates an image in which pixels satisfying the following condition are emphasized: the distance calculated by the calculation processing unit () is larger than or equal to a threshold.

Image processing device, image processing method, and computer-readable recording medium

A parking assist apparatus includes: a peripheral image generation portion that generates an overhead image of a periphery viewed from above based on a captured image of a periphery of a vehicle; and a display image generation portion that generates a display image by superimposing a host vehicle image displaying a host vehicle on one of left and right sides in the overhead image and superimposing a target frame displaying a target of a movement destination of the vehicle on the other of the left and right sides in the overhead image in an assist mode of a forward parking or a backward exit.

Parking assist apparatus

According to one embodiment, a parking assist device includes a detector configured to detect a target parking position from a captured image obtained from an imager; a position identifier that identifies, during a period while the vehicle is moving after the captured image was displayed on the display device and before a captured image captured next by the imager is displayed, the target parking position with respect to a current position of the vehicle, based on a first moving amount by which the vehicle has moved since the captured image was displayed on the display device and on a positional relation between the vehicle and the target parking position at the time when the captured image was captured; and a parking assist unit that guides the vehicle during the period based on the identified target parking position when a request for guiding the vehicle to the target parking position is made.

Parking assist device

A parking assistance device includes: a ground object detection unit configured to, in a predetermined detection region set in advance in at least a portion of the vehicle periphery, perform detection of a ground object defining a parking stall in which garage parking is to be performed; an end portion specification unit configured to specify an end portion of the ground object detected by the ground object detection unit, the end portion being located on an entrance side of the parking stall; and a target parking stall setting unit configured to set, based on the end portion on the entrance side specified by the end portion specification unit, a corner portion of a rectangular parking frame that defines a target parking stall in which the vehicle is to be parked, and set the parking frame to extend from the corner portion in the depth direction of the parking stall.

Parking assistance device

A parking assistance device includes: a route information storage unit storing in advance route information indicating a travel route at the time of parking, the route information being stored according to the forward start position; an inclination calculation unit configured to calculate a current inclination of a vehicle length direction of the vehicle with respect to the target parking position; an offset amount setting unit configured to set an offset amount in the interval direction of the forward route between the current vehicle position and the position at which the vehicle length direction is parallel with the forward route; and a guiding unit configured to guide the vehicle to the target parking position based on a travel route adjacent to the position at which the vehicle length direction is parallel with the forward route.

A parking support apparatus includes: a host vehicle positional information acquisition unit acquiring host vehicle positional information indicating a current position of a vehicle; an obliqueness calculation unit calculating obliqueness between a vehicle length direction and a longitudinal direction of the parking space, based on the host vehicle positional information; an obliqueness correction path calculation unit calculating an obliqueness correction path along which a position of the vehicle reaches a front end of the parking space, based on the obliqueness when the vehicle travels forward from a stop position at a steering angle; and a centering path calculation unit calculating a centering path which has a width at a central portion of the parking space in a width direction and along which the vehicle travels forward toward a central region set in the longitudinal direction, after a position of the vehicle reaches the front end of the parking space.

Parking support apparatus

Provided is a parking assistance device capable of setting a parking target position without placing a burden on a driver. The parking assistance device includes: a ground object detection unit configured to detect a ground object that defines a parking stall in a predetermined detection region set in advance on a lateral side of a vehicle; a parking stall calculation unit configured to, based on the ground object detected by the ground object detection unit, calculate a parking stall that exists in the detection region; and a target parking stall setting unit configured to, among the parking stalls calculated by the parking stall calculation unit, sets a parking stall in a width direction of the vehicle in a view from a driver's seat of the vehicle as a target parking stall.

A parking assist apparatus includes a detection portion detecting a parking target position from a captured image captured by an imager or from distance information measured by a distance measuring portion, a setting portion setting the detected parking target position as a target of the parking assist, a moving amount calculation portion calculating a moving amount of the vehicle, the moving amount being calculated before the parking target position is set as the target of the parking assist, a correction portion correcting the parking target position on the basis of the calculated moving amount, and a display portion displaying a surrounding image which represents an external environment around the vehicle and a parking region image which indicates the parking-possible region at the parking target position corrected by the correction portion in a manner that the surrounding image and the parking region image are superimposed on each other.
