Referring to fig. 2, a method 200 for assisting parking of a vehicle according to some embodiments of the present disclosure includes:
step S210: responding to a parking instruction corresponding to a target parking space, and determining whether the target parking space is occupied;
step S220: in response to determining that the target parking space is occupied, monitoring the state of the target parking space;
step S230: and controlling the autonomous vehicle to drive into the target parking space in response to the fact that the monitored state of the target parking space is changed from occupied to idle.
When the target parking space to be pushed into by the autonomous vehicle is occupied, the autonomous vehicle automatically monitors the target parking space, when the state of the monitored target parking space is changed from occupied to idle, the autonomous vehicle is controlled to drive into the target parking space, the autonomous vehicle can automatically stop to the target parking space, a user does not need to manually monitor the idle target parking space and then drive into the target parking space, the operation that the user parks the target parking space is reduced, and the time that the user parks the target parking space is saved.
In the related art, an autonomous vehicle based on autonomous driving must stop to a target slot corresponding to an instruction based on a human instruction. For example, the user instructs to point to target space a, and the autonomous vehicle currently located at point B travels from point B to target space a and stops. And when the target parking space A is occupied by the vehicle, the user must resend the user instruction pointing to another unoccupied free parking space C, so that the autonomous vehicle currently located at the point B drives to the free parking space C from the point B to stop. Therefore, for a target parking space A where a user wants to stop a vehicle to a position of the user, the user needs to monitor whether the user is idle or not by himself or a parking space manager monitors whether the user is idle or not and sends an idle message to the user; and after the target parking space A is idle, the user sends an instruction to instruct the autonomous vehicle to stop at the target parking space A. This process tends to be time consuming and labor intensive for the user.
According to the embodiment of the disclosure, after the user sends the instruction indicating that the autonomous vehicle stops at the target parking space A, the autonomous vehicle can automatically judge whether the target parking space A is occupied or not, when the autonomous vehicle is occupied, the target parking space A is automatically monitored, after the target parking space A is idle, the autonomous vehicle automatically drives into the target parking space A, and the autonomous vehicle can be stopped at the target parking space A which the autonomous vehicle is required to stop at only by sending the instruction indicating that the autonomous vehicle stops at the target parking space A in the whole process. The user operation is greatly reduced, and the energy consumption of the user is reduced.
It is to be understood that the method according to the present disclosure is applicable to various parking scenarios, and is particularly applicable to a scenario where there is no parking space temporarily when parking in a parking lot.
In some embodiments, the target slot may be a slot within a parking lot. In other embodiments, the target space may be a parking location of the target site. For example a garage located at home.
In some embodiments, determining whether the target slot is occupied is accomplished by a detection device disposed on the autonomous vehicle. For example, a picture of the target parking space is obtained by means of a camera device, and it is determined whether the target parking space is occupied on the basis of the picture analysis.
In some embodiments, determining whether the target slot is occupied is accomplished through a cloud server. For example, the cloud server receives information indicating whether the target parking space is occupied sent by the target parking space, and sends the information to the autonomous vehicle, so that the autonomous vehicle determines whether the target parking space is occupied based on the information.
In some embodiments, after determining that the target parking space is occupied, monitoring the state of the target parking space, as shown in fig. 3, the monitoring the state of the target parking space includes:
step S310: controlling the autonomous vehicle to stop at a first position, wherein the distance between the first position and the target parking space is smaller than a preset threshold value;
step S320: detecting the target parking space at the first position to obtain a detection result indicating whether the target parking space is idle or not; and
step S330: and monitoring the target parking space based on the detection result.
The autonomous vehicle is stopped at the first position close to the target parking space, and the target parking space is detected at the first position, so that a detection result indicating whether the target parking space is a space is obtained, and the target parking space is monitored.
The detection process is realized by adopting a sensing device arranged on the autonomous vehicle. Referring to fig. 4, the body 401 of the autonomous vehicle 400 is externally equipped with sensing devices that may include 2 bullet screen cameras 410a and 4 fisheye cameras 410b, 4 APA ultrasonic radar devices 420a and 8 UPA ultrasonic radar devices 420b, and so on. Therein, the monocular camera 410a and the fisheye camera 410b each have a corresponding detection range, as shown by the area defined by the dashed-line frame in fig. 4.
In some embodiments, detecting the target parking space at the first position is performed by acquiring an image captured by a camera and analyzing the image.
In some embodiments, as shown in fig. 5, detecting the target parking space at the first position to obtain the detection includes:
step S510: transmitting ultrasonic waves at the first position and receiving ultrasonic echoes; and
step S520: obtaining the detection result based on the received ultrasonic echo.
The ultrasonic waves are transmitted at the first position, and the ultrasonic echoes are received to obtain the detection result, and the ultrasonic radar is sensitive in sensing when the vehicle moves slowly and is static, so that the data processing amount in the process of obtaining the detection result is small, the efficiency is high, and the method for obtaining the detection result is simple.
In some embodiments, the preset threshold value ranges from 1m to 4 m.
And setting the first position within 4m of the target parking space, so that the detection result of the ultrasonic wave is accurate. Meanwhile, the first position is at least 1m away from the target parking space, so that the influence on the exit of the vehicle occupying the target parking space is avoided.
In some examples, the first location is set to within 3 meters of the target space in response to the ultrasonic radar detection range having the highest accuracy between 0.1 and 3 meters.
Referring to fig. 6A and 6B, scene diagrams implementing methods for assisting parking of a vehicle according to some embodiments of the present disclosure are illustrated. As shown in fig. 6A, when it is determined that target space 601 is currently occupied by vehicle 620, autonomous vehicle 610 stops at a first position located at a side of target space 601. As shown in fig. 6B, when the vehicle 620 exits the target space 601 to make the target space 601 free, the autonomous vehicle 610 monitors that the state of the target space 601 changes from occupied to free, and enters the target space 601.
In some embodiments, as shown in fig. 7, monitoring the state of the target parking space includes:
step S710: receiving a detection signal from a detection device located at the target parking space; and
step S720: and monitoring the target parking space based on the detection signal.
The detection signal comprises any one of a first signal and a second signal, the first signal indicates that the current state of the target parking space is occupied, and the second signal indicates that the current state of the target parking space is idle.
And for the target parking space with a longer distance, monitoring the target parking space is realized by receiving the detection signal sent by the target parking space.
For example, for a target parking space beyond 2km, the cloud server receives a detection signal sent by the communication module on the target parking space, and sends the detection signal to the autonomous vehicle, so that the autonomous vehicle monitors that the target parking space is changed from occupied to idle, and the autonomous vehicle is controlled to drive to the target parking space.
In some embodiments, the detection device of the target parking space may be a radar sensing device, for example.
In some embodiments, a wireless communication device is further disposed on the target parking space to transmit a detection signal of the detection device.
In some embodiments, the wireless communication module at the target parking space may communicate directly with the autonomous vehicle, sending the detection signal to the autonomous vehicle.
According to another aspect of the present disclosure, there is also provided an apparatus for assisting parking of a vehicle, referring to fig. 8, the apparatus 800 including: a first determination unit 810 configured to determine whether a target parking space is occupied in response to a parking instruction corresponding to the target parking space; a monitoring unit 820 configured to monitor a state of the target parking space in response to determining that the target parking space is occupied; and a control unit 830, configured to control the autonomous vehicle to drive into the target parking space in response to monitoring that the state of the target parking space is changed from occupied to idle.
