Automated parking system

1. A method for determining the position of a motor vehicle on a traffic area of a parking facility, the method comprising:

scanning a camera image of the traffic area including the motor vehicle;

determining a position of the motor vehicle based on the camera image;

scanning the motor vehicle with a stationary sensor on the traffic area; and

validating or correcting the determined position based on the scanning with the stationary sensor;

wherein the parking space is reachable with the motor vehicle via the traffic area,

wherein the validated or corrected position on a route between a service area and the parking space is provided to the motor vehicle which uses the validated or corrected position to automatically steer the motor vehicle, and

wherein a further stationary sensor is attached in the area of a traffic junction of the traffic area, and the motor vehicle is steered as a function of a signal of the further stationary sensor which indicates a further motor vehicle.

7. The computer readable medium of claim 6 , wherein the stationary sensor includes at least one of a passive sensor or an active sensor, and wherein the further stationary sensor includes at least one of a passive sensor or an active sensor.

8. The computer readable medium of claim 7 , wherein the passive sensor includes at least one of a magnetometer or a photosensor, and wherein the active sensor includes at least one of a radar sensor, a LIDAR sensor, or an ultrasonic sensor.

a processing device for determining a position of the motor vehicle based on the camera image; and

a stationary sensor in the area of a traffic area via which the parking space is reachable with the motor vehicle;

wherein the processing device is configured to validate or correct the determined position based on a scanning with the stationary sensor,

wherein the stationary sensor is configured the same as the parking facility sensor, which is configured to determine a presence of a motor vehicle parked in a parking space of the parking facility, the parking space being reachable by the motor vehicle via a traffic area, and

wherein a further stationary sensor is attached in the area of a traffic junction of the traffic area, and the motor vehicle is steered as a function of a signal of the further stationary sensor which indicates a further motor vehicle.

10. The control system of claim 9 , wherein the parking facility sensor is configured to be coupled to a ground of the parking facility.
