Abstract
A parking assist system includes an electronic control unit configured to: estimate first extending directions of obstacles respectively located on right and left sides of a target parking space in a state where a host vehicle moves across in front of the target parking space; calculate a planned moving path based on the estimated first extending directions; as the host vehicle is guided into the target parking space, estimate second extending directions of the obstacles respectively located on the right and left sides of the target parking space while updating the second extending directions; determine whether the estimated and updated second extending directions satisfy a predetermined condition; and when the updated second extending directions satisfy the predetermined condition, update the planned moving path by using the updated second extending directions instead of the first extending directions or the second extending directions before being updated.
