Abstract

A method that includes obtaining a first image from a first camera disposed on a vehicle and generating a birds-eye view (BEV) image using the first image. The method further includes processing, with a machine-learned model, the BEV image to produce parking slot prediction data. The parking slot prediction data includes a first center coordinate for a first available parking slot, a first parking slot confidence, and a first corner displacement data. The first corner displacement data includes a first relative coordinate pair that locates a first corner relative to the first center coordinate and a second relative coordinate pair that locates a second corner relative to the first center coordinate. The method further includes determining a first location of the first available parking slot using the parking slot prediction data and parking the vehicle in the first available parking slot when the first parking slot confidence meets a threshold.
