Guiding of a motor vehicle in a parking lot
A method for guiding a motor vehicle in a parking facility encompasses steps of ascertaining, externally to the motor vehicle, a trajectory in the parking facility from a starting position to a destination position; transmitting at least a segment of the trajectory to the motor vehicle via a communication network; and monitoring the motor vehicle, by way of a monitoring system external to the motor vehicle, as the segment is traversed, to determine a deviation, the trajectory being ascertained as a function of a property of the motor vehicle. Also described are a corresponding apparatus, a parking system, and a computer program.
1. A method for guiding a motor vehicle in a parking facility, the method comprising:
ascertaining, externally to the motor vehicle, a trajectory in the parking facility from a starting position to a destination position; and
transmitting at least a segment of the trajectory to the motor vehicle via a communication network;
wherein the motor vehicle is monitored by an off-board monitoring system, as the segment is traversed, to determine a deviation as the segment is autonomously traversed,
wherein the trajectory is ascertained as a function of a property of the motor vehicle,
wherein the property includes vehicle parameters, the vehicle parameters including static dimensions of the motor vehicle, including at least one of a length, a width, and a height of the vehicle, the vehicle parameters further including vehicle dynamic parameters, including at least one of a minimum curve radius and a steering rate, and
wherein the vehicle parameters of the motor vehicle are stored in a table, a key to which is a vehicle type of the motor vehicle.
2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the property includes an equipment inventory.
3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the trajectory is associated with a path between the starting position and the destination position.
4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the trajectory is ascertained by experiment.
5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the trajectory is determined based on geometrical or functional data of the parking facility and of the motor vehicle.
6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the trajectory ends in front of a parking position, and an entry operation of the motor vehicle into the parking position is controlled autonomously by the motor vehicle.
7. The method of claim 1 , wherein the trajectory includes a parking position.
8. The method of claim 1 , wherein a determination is made of the destination positions in the parking facility for which a trajectory for the motor vehicle can be ascertained.
9. A computer readable medium having a computer program, which is executable by a processor, comprising:
a program code arrangement having program code means for guiding a motor vehicle in a parking facility, by performing the following:
ascertaining, externally to the motor vehicle, a trajectory in the parking facility from a starting position to a destination position; and
transmitting at least a segment of the trajectory to the motor vehicle via a communication network;
wherein the motor vehicle is monitored by an off-board monitoring system, as the segment is traversed, to determine a deviation as the segment is autonomously traversed,
wherein the trajectory is ascertained as a function of a property of the motor vehicle,
wherein the property includes vehicle parameters, the vehicle parameters including static dimensions of the motor vehicle, including at least one of a length, a width, and a height of the vehicle, the vehicle parameters further including vehicle dynamic parameters, including at least one of a minimum curve radius and a steering rate, and
wherein the vehicle parameters of the motor vehicle are stored in a table, a key to which is a vehicle type of the motor vehicle.
