Abstract
A method of controlling a vehicle, which is configured to be autonomously driven, includes determining a learned route based on a driving route that the vehicle has driven in a manual mode from a starting location to an ending location, driving the vehicle along the learned route in an autonomous mode, detecting a parking space based on driving the vehicle along the learned route in the autonomous mode, and based on a detection of the parking space in the learned route, parking the vehicle in the detected parking space.
Claims18
A method of controlling a vehicle that is configured to be autonomously driven, the method comprising:
- determining a learned route based on a driving route that the vehicle has driven in a manual mode from a starting location to an ending location;
- driving the vehicle along the learned route in an autonomous mode;
- detecting a parking space based on driving the vehicle along the learned route in the autonomous mode;
- and
- based on a detection of the parking space in the learned route, parking the vehicle in the detected parking space,
- wherein determining the learned route based on the driving route comprises:
- detecting an object located in the driving route from the starting location to the ending location,
- determining a property of the object detected in the driving route, and
- storing information about the property of the object, and
- wherein storing the information about the property of the object comprises storing first information related to an object that is located at a static location in the driving route and second information related to an object that is movable in the driving route.
A vehicle comprising:
- a wheel;
- a power source configured to drive the wheel;
- and
- at least one processor configured to:
- determine a learned route based on a driving route that the vehicle has driven in a manual mode from a starting location to an ending location,
- drive the vehicle along the learned route in an autonomous mode,
- detect a parking space based on the vehicle being driven along the learned route in the autonomous mode,
- based on a detection of the parking space in the learned route, park the vehicle in the detected parking space,
- detect an object located in the driving route from the starting location to the ending location,
- determine a property of the object detected in the driving route, and
- store information about the property of the object,
- wherein the information about the property of the object comprises first information related to an object that is located at a static location in the driving route and second information related to an object that is movable in the driving route.
