Abstract
A system for detecting a height of an obstacle for parking assistance, may include a distance measurement module including a distance sensor measuring a distance from an obstacle existing at a side of a vehicle and a wireless transmitter wirelessly transmitting a detecting value of the distance sensor; a wireless receiver receiving the detecting value of the distance sensor from the wireless transmitter; and a controller determining a height of the obstacle on the basis of the received detecting value.
Claims16
A system for detecting a height of an obstacle for parking assistance, the system comprising:
- a distance measurement module including:
- a distance sensor configured for measuring a distance from the obstacle positioned at a side of a vehicle;
- and
- a wireless transmitter coupled to the distance sensor and wirelessly transmitting a measured value of the distance of the distance sensor;
- a wireless receiver configured for receiving the measured value of the distance of the distance sensor from the wireless transmitter;
- and
- a controller connected to the wireless receiver and configured for determining the height of the obstacle on a basis of the received measured value,
- wherein the controller is configured to determine the height of the obstacle based on an output time of a signal detected from a start point to an end point where the distance sensor recognizes a maximum height of the obstacle and an angular speed received from a wheel speed sensor.
