the storing includes storing the traveling route for parking the vehicle at the parking target position based on first sensor information on surroundings of the vehicle acquired by a first sensor mounted on the vehicle during the parking operation performed in the past,
the target position is where the vehicle is able to move to the parking target position by the automatic traveling,
the parking support method further comprises estimating a position of the vehicle and the target position based on second sensor information obtained by acquiring the surroundings of the vehicle,
the target position includes a region in which the vehicle is able to merge into the traveling route,
the region includes a belt-shaped region along the traveling route, and
a width of the belt-shaped region becomes narrower as a road distance to the target position is shorter.
2 . The parking support method according to claim 1 , wherein the first guidance information includes the target position, and an orientation of the vehicle for enabling the automatic traveling of the vehicle when the vehicle is positioned at the target position.
3 . The parking support method according to claim 1 , wherein the target position includes a start position of the traveling route.
4 . The parking support method according to claim 1 , wherein the displaying of the first guidance information includes changing a display mode of a traveling region before and after the vehicle reaches the target position where the vehicle is able to merge into the traveling route.
5 . The parking support method according to claim 4 , wherein the displaying of the first guidance information includes causing the display to display the region in a first color before the vehicle reaches the target position where the vehicle is able to merge into the traveling route, and to display the region in a second color different from the first color after the vehicle reaches the target position where the vehicle is able to merge into the traveling route.
6 . The parking support method according to claim 1 , further comprising:
determining that the vehicle has reached the target position where the vehicle is able to merge into the traveling route when the position and an orientation of the vehicle satisfy prescribed conditions.
7 . The parking support method according to claim 1 , wherein the method begins displaying a message asking the driver of the vehicle whether to start the automatic traveling of the vehicle based on the teacher traveling when a distance to the target position and an orientation of the vehicle satisfy prescribed conditions.
8 . The parking support method according to claim 1 , further comprising:
controlling the vehicle to move to the target position.
9 . The parking support method according to claim 1 , wherein
the display includes a head-up display,
the first guidance information indicates the position of the vehicle, and
the first guidance information is displayed on the head-up display.
10 . The parking support method according to claim 1 , wherein
the display is disposed on a dashboard of the vehicle, and
the first guidance image indicates the target position where the vehicle is able to move to the parking target position on a front view or a top view displayed on the display.
11 . The parking support method according to claim 1 , further comprising:
acquiring position information of the vehicle;
estimating a distance to the parking target position from the position of the vehicle based on the position information; and
reporting to a user that the parking target position is close to the user when the distance is a threshold or less, wherein
the estimating is performed when receiving an operation from a user for starting the automatic traveling toward the parking target position after a report is made in response to the reporting.
12 . The parking support method according to claim 11 , wherein
the position information includes Global Positioning System (GPS) position information, and
the estimating the distance includes estimating the position of the vehicle based on the GPS position information and a movement amount of the vehicle after a time point when the GPS position information is acquired.
13 . The parking support method according to claim 1 , wherein
the teacher traveling includes traveling by which the driver moves the vehicle from a traveling start position outside the parking target position to the parking target position by manual driving, and
the storing includes learning the traveling start position in the teacher traveling as a start position of the traveling route.
14 . The parking support method according to claim 1 , wherein
the teacher traveling includes traveling by which the driver moves the vehicle from the parking target position to a teacher traveling end position outside the parking target position by manual driving, and
the storing includes storing, in the storage, the teacher traveling end position as a start position of the traveling route, and the traveling route on which the vehicle travels in a reverse direction than the teacher traveling.
15 . A parking support device for performing automatic traveling of a vehicle based on a parking operation performed in the past, the parking support device comprising:
a memory; and
a processor coupled to the memory and configured to:
cause the memory to store information on at least one of a traveling route and a parking target position based on a parking operation performed in the past; and
cause a display to display first guidance information based on a target position where automatic traveling of the vehicle is able to be performed based on the at least one of the traveling route and the parking target position,
wherein the parking operation performed in the past is teacher traveling performed by a driver of the vehicle,
the processor causes the memory to store the traveling route for parking the vehicle at the parking target position based on first sensor information on surroundings of the vehicle acquired by a first sensor mounted on the vehicle during the parking operation performed in the past,
the target position is where the vehicle is able to move to the parking target position by the automatic traveling,
the processor further estimates a position of the vehicle and the target position based on second sensor information obtained by acquiring the surroundings of the vehicle,
the target position includes a region in which the vehicle is able to merge into the traveling route,
the region includes a belt-shaped region along the traveling route, and a width of the belt-shaped region becomes narrower as a road distance to the target position is shorter.
16 . A parking support method of performing automatic traveling of a vehicle based on a parking operation performed in the past, the parking support method comprising:
storing, in a storage, information on at least one of a traveling route and a parking target position based on the parking operation performed in the past; and
controlling the vehicle to move to the parking target position based on a target position where automatic traveling of the vehicle is able to be performed based on the at least one of the traveling route and the parking target position,
wherein the parking operation performed in the past is teacher traveling performed by a driver of the vehicle,
the target position is where the vehicle is able to move to the parking target position by the automatic traveling,
