The invention relates to a method for carrying out a parking process for a vehicle (), in which the parking process is carried out at least semi-autonomously, a parking assistance device () of the vehicle being able to carry out an autonomous parking process or a semi-autonomous parking process and, depending on environmental conditions of the vehicle (), the parking assistance device () deciding whether a parking process is carried out autonomously or semi-autonomously.

Method for carrying out a parking process for a vehicle and driver assistance device

The invention relates to a maneuvering system () for the automated maneuvering of a motor vehicle (), including an on-board control device () which is designed to provide control signals (S) to a drive device and/or steering device () of the motor vehicle () and thereby to carry out a maneuvering operation of the motor vehicle () automatically, and including a portable communication device () which is operable by a user, which is designed to communicate wirelessly with the on-board control device () and thereby to enable and/or interrupt the maneuvering operation as a function of an input by the user at an operating device () of the portable communication device (). The on-board control device () is designed to transmit messages () to the portable communication device () with respect to the maneuvering operation as part of the wireless communication, and the portable communication device () designed to output an acoustic information signal () by means of a loudspeaker () and/or a haptic information signal () by means of a haptic device () including information about the maneuvering operation, as a function of the received messages ().

Remote-controlled maneuvering of a motor vehicle with the aid of a portable communication device

The invention relates to a method for performing an at least semi-autonomous parking process of a motor vehicle () in a garage (), wherein the garage () is detected and a current position of the motor vehicle () relative to the garage () is determined by means of a parking assistance system () of the motor vehicle (), and wherein following detection of the garage () the at least semi-autonomous parking process is carried out depending on the current position of the motor vehicle () relative to the garage (), wherein an image of the garage () is recorded by means of a camera () of the parking assistance system () and the detection of the garage () comprises subjecting the image to pattern recognition regarding the garage entrance () by means of an image processor () of the parking assistance system () and identifying the garage () by means of the pattern recognition.

Method for performing an at least semi-autonomous parking process of a motor vehicle in a garage, parking assistance system and motor vehicle

The invention relates to a device and a method for displaying objects in the surroundings of a vehicle having a sensor arrangement, in order to sense objects in the surroundings of the vehicle and to determine the position thereof relative to the vehicle, wherein the sensor arrangement covers, with its detection range, only a partial area of the surroundings of the vehicle; in order to improve the assistance provided to the driver during parking processes and the processes of removing a vehicle from a parking space, the processing device is designed to determine the area of the surroundings of the vehicle for which no object information is yet available, since said area has not yet been passed over by the detection range of the sensor arrangement, and the display device is designed to display the extent of this area.

Device and method for displaying objects in the surroundings of a vehicle

The invention relates to a method for executing an at least semi-autonomous parking process of a vehicle () by means of a parking assistance system (), in which ambient conditions of the vehicle () are sensed as it travels past a potential parking space (), and a parking path is determined as a function of the ambient conditions and of the parking space (), wherein the ambient conditions comprise at least one obstacle () which is external to the parking space and does not directly bound the parking space () and is detected as near to the vehicle and is taken into account in the determination of the parking path (), wherein the parking process is executed in a plurality of maneuvers (), and at least one maneuver () which is executed with an autonomous steering intervention is determined in terms of its profile as a function of the obstacle (). The invention also relates to a parking assistance system () for a vehicle ().

Method for executing an at least semi-autonomous parking process of a vehicle and parking assistance system for a vehicle

The invention relates to a method for assisting a driver of a motor vehicle () when parking in a parking space (), in particular in a garage (), using a driver assistance device () of the motor vehicle (), wherein: The invention also relates to a driver assistance device () for carrying out the method.
