Automated Vehicle Mobile Guidance System for Parking Assistance
Naohisa Hashimoto, Shin Kato, 直子 美濃部, Sadayuki Tsugawa · IEEE Intelligent Vehicles Symposium · 2007
A new concept that a vehicle, which does not have fully automated functions but has partial intelligent functions, is manually or automatically guided to an assigned destination position with a guidance system has been proposed. This paper describes the concept of the system and reports the experimental results of the guidance to a parking space with the proposed system. The experimental study has been conducted to show the feasibility of the system proposed. In the experiments, a vehicle was guided with a mobile guidance system that measures the position and the heading of a guided vehicle to instruct it the steering and the velocity to its goal. The system is featured by that a few intelligent mobile guidance systems will assist many ordinary vehicles in dedicated areas including parking lots.
