Abstract
An apparatus for controlling remote parking in a vehicle is provided. The apparatus includes an ultrasonic sensor that measures a distance from the vehicle to an obstruction and a receiver that receives a surround view monitoring (SVM) image. A controller executes remote parking of the vehicle by selectively using the distance from the obstruction, the distance being measured by the ultrasonic sensor, and the SVM image received by the receiver.
Claims22
An apparatus for controlling remote parking in a vehicle, comprising:
- an ultrasonic sensor provided in the vehicle and configured to measure a distance from the vehicle to an obstruction;
- a receiver configured to receive a surround view monitoring (SVM) image from an SVM system provided in the vehicle;
- and
- a controller configured to execute remote parking of the vehicle by selectively using the distance to the obstruction and the SVM image,
- wherein the controller is configured to:
- select the ultrasonic sensor when a separation distance from other vehicles which are parked at both sides of a parking space is more than a minimum sensing distance;
- and
- select the SVM image when the separation distance from other vehicles which are parked at both sides of the parking space is less than the minimum sensing distance.
