Abstract
Systems and methods to recognize a parking space are disclosed. One or more images are captured using one or more cameras coupled to a vehicle at a parking space. Data associated with the parking space are determined from the one or more images. The data associated with the parking space are compared to data stored in a storage device. A parking condition for the vehicle is determined based on the comparing.
Claims28
A data processing system to recognize a parking space for a vehicle comprising:
- one or more image sensors to capture one or more images at a first parking space;
- a processor coupled to the one or more image sensors, wherein the processor is configured to determine first data associated with the first parking space from the one or more images, wherein the processor is configured to compare the first data to second data stored in a storage device, and wherein the processor is configured to determine a parking condition for the vehicle based on the comparing, wherein the processor is further configured to monitor one or more locations of the vehicle, wherein the processor is further configured to determine a route of the vehicle based on the monitoring, wherein the processor is further configured to determine a first radius based on the route, wherein the processor is further configured to send a trigger signal to capture the one or more images, if a distance between the vehicle and the first parking space is less or equal to the first radius.
A non-transitory machine-readable medium storing executable computer program instructions which when executed by one or more data processing systems cause the one or more data processing systems to perform operations comprising:
- capturing one or more images using one or more cameras coupled to a vehicle at a first parking space;
- determining first data associated with the first parking space from the one or more images;
- comparing the first data to second data stored in a storage device;
- determining a parking condition for the vehicle based on the comparing:
- monitoring one or more locations of the vehicle;
- determining a route of the vehicle based on the monitoring;
- determining a first radius based on the route;
- and
- sending a trigger signal to capture the one or more images, if a distance between the vehicle and the first parking space is less or equal to the first radius.
A machine implemented method to recognize a parking space comprising:
- capturing one or more images using one or more cameras coupled to a vehicle at a first parking space;
- determining first data associated with the first parking space from the one or more images;
- comparing the first data to second data stored in a storage device;
- determining a parking condition for the vehicle based on the comparing;
- monitoring one or more locations of the vehicle;
- determining a route of the vehicle based on the monitoring;
- determining a first radius based on the route;
- and
- sending a trigger signal to capture the one or more images, if a distance between the vehicle and the first parking space is less or equal to the first radius.
