Abstract
A vehicle sensing and guidance system for a vehicle wash, and a vehicle wash, are provided. The system includes a first vehicle sensing system having at least one sensor configured to detect a vehicle and generate sensor data, a storage storing computer readable instructions, at least one processor that, when executing the computer readable instructions, determines a pose of the first vehicle using the sensor data, and at least one output device configured to present at least one of a first vehicle positioning marker and a vehicle positioning signal at least partially based on the pose of the first vehicle.
Claims23
A vehicle sensing and guidance system for a vehicle wash, comprising:
- a vehicle sensing system having at least one sensor positioned to detect a position of a vehicle approaching the vehicle wash at least partially based on a distance between the at least one sensor and the vehicle and generate sensor data;
- a storage storing computer readable instructions;
- at least one processor that, when executing the computer readable instructions, determines the position of the vehicle using the sensor data;
- and
- at least one display connected to the at least one processor to present an image of the vehicle and a vehicle positioning marker, wherein the vehicle positioning marker indicates at least one of a target position and a target position range along a lateral axis perpendicular to a vehicle travel direction through the vehicle wash for loading the vehicle onto a conveyor system.
