Whether an own vehicle is positioned in a parking space of a first type including a plurality of parking sections or the own vehicle is positioned in a vicinity of a parking space of a second type in which a single vehicle can be parked is determined. In a case where the own vehicle is determined to be positioned in the parking space of the first type, data representing a relative positional relationship between a target object indicating a parking section and a parking position in the target parking section are stored in a storage device, and in a case where the own vehicle is determined to be positioned in a vicinity of the parking space of the second type, data representing a relative positional relationship between a target object detected in the vicinity of the parking space and a target parking position are stored in the storage device.

Parking assisting method and parking assistance device

In a parking assist method, a surrounding image that is a color image obtained by capturing surroundings of an own vehicle is acquired, the surrounding image is converted to a first multi-gradation image in such a way that a luminance difference between a region in which a ratio of a green component is low and a region in which the ratio of the green component is high in the surrounding image increases, a feature point is extracted from the first multi-gradation image, and a relative position of the own vehicle with respect to a target parking position is calculated based on the extracted feature point.

A parking assistance method includes: calculating a first target travel trajectory starting from a start point of an actual travel trajectory when a vehicle is parked by manual driving and reaching a target parking position; calculating a deviation range including a portion of the actual travel trajectory in which the actual travel trajectory deviates a first predetermined distance or more from the first target travel trajectory; setting a target intermediate position existing in the deviation range; when assisting the vehicle in parking at the target parking position, calculating a second target travel trajectory, that is a trajectory starting from a parking start position, the parking start position being a position of the vehicle at a time point when parking is started, passing through the target intermediate position, and reaching the target parking position; and performing parking assistance control to assist the vehicle in moving along the second target travel trajectory.

Parking assistance method and parking assistance device

An image processing method includes: capturing, by a first image capturing device installed at a position located on a side surface outside a vehicle interior of a vehicle and anterior to a rear end of the vehicle, a first image, the first image being an image of a region including a rear lateral side of the vehicle; capturing, by a second image capturing device installed on a rear end of the vehicle, a second image, the second image being an image of a region in a rear of the vehicle; generating a synthetic image serving as an image of a rear view of the vehicle by synthesizing the first image and the second image with each other; and superimposing an outline, the outline being a line segment extending along a contour of a side surface of the vehicle, in the synthetic image.

Image processing method, image displaying method, image processing device, and image displaying device

A vehicle control method and a vehicle control device are configured to control the movement of a vehicle based on operation of a terminal device located outside the vehicle. The vehicle receives from the terminal device a first signal indicating that a first button of the terminal device has been pressed. The vehicle doors are unlocked based on the reception of the first signal, and the vehicle is placed in a state in which movement control is permitted.

A parking assistance method includes: storing positions of target objects detected around the target parking position as learned target object positions; when the own vehicle travels in a vicinity of the target parking position after the learned target object positions are stored, counting the number of times that the learned target object position coincides with a surrounding target object position of a target object detected around the own vehicle and providing a higher degree of reliability to the learned target object position having a larger number of times of coincidence with the surrounding target object position; by comparing the learned target object position having a degree of reliability greater than or equal to a predetermined threshold degree of reliability with a position of a target object detected around the own vehicle, calculating a relative position of the own vehicle with respect to the target parking position.

A parking assistance method includes: detecting, from an image of surroundings of a vehicle, a first target object position; detecting a first image capturing situation when the image is captured; with respect to a second target object position of a target object detected from a past image of surroundings of a target parking position in a past, retrieving one or more combinations of a relative positional relationship between the second target object position and the target parking position and a second image capturing situation when the past image is captured; selecting, the relative positional relationship combined with the second image capturing situation having a difference from the first image capturing situation less than or equal to a predetermined difference; and calculating, based on the selected relative positional relationship and the first target object position, a relative position between a current position of the vehicle and the target parking position.

A parking assist method performs a parking assist control of a host vehicle based on a target travel path when a distance between a self-position and a target parking position is determined to be equal to or less than a first predetermined distance, a parking assist permission condition is satisfied, and a shift operation for switching direction has been detected. The parking assist permission condition is satisfied where either a condition in which a predetermined time or longer has elapsed since the host vehicle departed from the target parking position, or a condition in which the distance between the self-position and the target parking position since the host vehicle departed from the target parking position exceeds a second predetermined distance that is equal to or less than the first predetermined distance. The parking assist control is suppressed when the parking assist permission condition is not satisfied.

A parking assistance method including: detecting a target object position that is a relative position with respect to the own vehicle; retrieving a known target object and a relative positional relationship between the known target object and a target parking position from a storage device; based on the detected target object position detected and a relative positional relationship between the known target object and a target parking position, estimating a relative position of the target parking position with respect to a current position of the own vehicle; based on the estimated relative position, calculating a target travel trajectory from a current position of the own vehicle to the target parking position; determining estimation precision of the estimated relative position; when the estimation precision is low, limiting a speed limit of movement speed at which the own vehicle is caused to travel along the target travel trajectory to a speed lower.

A parking assistance device includes: a sensor-information processing circuit that detects an empty parking space around a host vehicle; a surrounding-image generation circuit that generates a surrounding image that is a view of surroundings of the host vehicle from above; an image display circuit that displays a first assistance image at a position of the empty parking space in the surrounding image, the first assistance image indicating the empty parking space; and a stop determination circuit that determines whether the host vehicle has stopped. In a case where it is determined by the stop determination circuit that the host vehicle has stopped, the image display circuit displays the first assistance image.

A vehicle remote control method controls a vehicle having an autonomous travel control function to execute autonomous travel control. The method includes detecting an input position at which a touch operation is performed by an operator on a touch panel of a remote operation device and making a gesture determination area variable in accordance with the input position. The gesture determination area is an area in which a gesture for remotely controlling the vehicle is received. The method further includes detecting the gesture from the gesture determination area and determining whether or not the detected gesture is a command gesture that is preliminarily set. When the gesture is the command gesture, the vehicle is controlled to execute the autonomous travel control.
