Method for guiding parking mode in remote automatic parking support system
A method for guiding a parking mode in a remote automatic parking support system is provided. The remote automatic parking support system includes a first mode and a second mode. In the first mode, automatic parking is performed based on a parking request from a smart key or a smartphone of a driver positioned extraneous to a vehicle and in the second mode, automatic parking is performed based on a parking request from a switch mounted within the vehicle. The vehicle is guided in first mode or the second mode based on a surrounding environment, thereby providing optimal convenience to the driver.
1. A method for guiding a vehicle in a parking mode in a remote automatic parking support system, comprising:
detecting, by a processor, a width of a parking space, a weather condition, an outdoor temperature, and a parking state of a neighbor vehicle when the parking space is detected;
guiding, by the processor, the vehicle in a first parking mode in which automatic parking is performed based on a parking request from a driver terminal positioned extraneous to a vehicle when the width of the parking space is less than a reference value;
guiding, by the processor, the vehicle in a second parking mode in which automatic parking is performed based on a parking request from a switch mounted within the vehicle when rain is detected, when the outdoor temperature exceeds a first threshold value, and when the outdoor temperature is less than a second threshold value; and
performing, by the processor, automatic parking in a parking mode selected by a driver.
2. The method according to claim 1 , wherein, in the performing of the automatic parking, front end parking or back-in parking is automatically selected based on the parking state of the neighbor vehicle.
3. The method according to claim 1 , wherein, in the automatic parking, when an auto-hold function of the vehicle is in an ON state, the auto-hold function is automatically released and automatic parking is performed.
4. The method according to claim 1 , wherein, in the automatic parking, when automatic parking ends, park-position shifting is performed and an engine of the vehicle is subsequently turned off.
5. A remote automatic parking support system for a vehicle, comprising:
a sensor configured to detect a width of a parking space, a weather condition, an outdoor temperature, and a parking state of a neighbor vehicle;
a controller configured to guide the vehicle in a first parking mode in which automatic parking is performed based on a parking request from the driver terminal positioned extraneous to a vehicle when the width of the parking space is less than a reference value, and a second parking mode in which automatic parking is performed based on a parking request from a switch mounted within the vehicle when rain is detected, when the outdoor temperature exceeds a first threshold value, and when the outdoor temperature is less than a second threshold value; and
a display configured to output the first parking mode or the second parking mode.
6. The system of claim 5 , wherein front end parking or back-in parking is automatically selected based on the parking state of the neighbor vehicle.
7. A non-transitory computer readable medium containing program instructions executed by a processor for guiding a vehicle in a parking mode in a remote automatic parking support system, the computer readable medium comprising:
program instructions that detect a width of a parking space, a weather condition, an outdoor temperature, and a parking state of a neighbor vehicle when the parking space is detected;
program instructions that guide the vehicle in a first parking mode in which automatic parking is performed based on a parking request from a driver terminal positioned extraneous to a vehicle when the width of the parking space is less than a reference value;
program instructions that guide the vehicle in a second mode in which automatic parking is performed based on a parking request from a switch mounted within the vehicle when rain is detected, when the outdoor temperature exceeds a first threshold value, and when the outdoor temperature is less than a second threshold value; and
program instructions that perform automatic parking in a parking mode selected by a driver.
8. The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 7 , wherein front end parking or back-in parking is automatically selected based on the parking state of the neighbor vehicle.
