Systems and methods for vehicle park assist

1. A vehicle parking assist system comprising:

a processor configured to:

communicate with a parking automation system external to a vehicle, the parking automation system having at least one sensor configured to provide a measured distance value from a detected object to the vehicle, wherein the at least one sensor comprises a camera; and

responsive to the measured distance value, control a brake system of the vehicle to stop the vehicle based on the measured distance value being less than a first predefined threshold.

2. The vehicle parking assist system of claim 1 wherein the measured distance value is a distance from a wall of a garage to the vehicle, and the first predefined threshold is a calibrated distance so that the vehicle stops before contacting the wall of the garage.

3. The vehicle parking assist system of claim 2 , wherein the processor is further configured to transmit to a display a value of the distance from the wall of the garage to the vehicle.

4. The vehicle parking assist system of claim 1 , wherein the processor is further configured to receive a brake override request via input at a brake pedal sensor.

5. The vehicle parking assist system of claim 1 , wherein the parking automation system is configured with a global system for mobile communications network to communicate with the processor.

6. The vehicle parking assist system of claim 1 , wherein the processor is further configured to establish communication with a mobile device and to communicate with the parking automation system via the mobile device.

7. The vehicle parking assist system of claim 1 , wherein the at least one sensor further comprises a first garage sensor, a second garage sensor, and a third garage sensor.

8. A vehicle parking assist system configured to communicate with a parking automation system having first, second, and third garage sensors external to a vehicle, at least one of which providing a measured distance value from a detected object to the vehicle, the vehicle parking assist system comprising:

a processor configured to:

establish communication with the parking automation system;

receive a sidewall distance value from at least one of the first, second, and third garage sensors;

control a brake system of the vehicle in response to the measured distance value so that the vehicle comes to a stop based on the measured distance value being less than a first predefined threshold; and

control an electrically assisted power steering system based on the sidewall distance value being less than a second predefined threshold.

9. The vehicle parking assist system of claim 8 , wherein the sidewall distance value of a garage is a distance from a sidewall of the garage to the vehicle, and the second predefined threshold is a calibrated distance so that the vehicle turns via the electrically assisted power steering system before contacting the sidewall of the garage.

10. The vehicle parking assist system of claim 9 , wherein the processor is further configured to transmit to a display a value of the distance from the sidewall of the garage to the vehicle.

11. The vehicle parking assist system of claim 8 , wherein the processor is further configured to receive a steering wheel override request via input at a steering wheel sensor.

12. A vehicle computing system comprising:

a processor in communication with a remote parking automation system (PAS) having first and second sensors external to a vehicle, the processor configured to:

control a brake system based on a first distance value received from the first sensor being less than a first predefined threshold; and

control a power steering system based on a second distance value received from the second sensor being less than a second predefined threshold, wherein at least one of the first and second sensors comprises a camera.

13. The vehicle of claim 12 , wherein the first distance value is a distance from a wall of a garage to the vehicle, and the first predefined threshold is a calibrated distance so that the vehicle stops before contacting the wall of the garage.

14. The vehicle of claim 13 , wherein the processor is further configured to transmit to a display a value of the distance from the wall of the garage to the vehicle.

15. The vehicle of claim 12 , wherein the second distance value of a garage is a distance from a sidewall of the garage to the vehicle, and the second predefined threshold is a calibrated distance so that the vehicle turns via the power steering system before contacting the sidewall of the garage.
