Abstract
A method for processing parking space information includes detecting, before a driver sends information for requesting an effective parking space, whether an idle parking space exists in a traveling environment of a vehicle and recording information about the idle parking space. After the driver sends the information for requesting an effective parking space, stored information about one or more effective parking spaces is then recommended to the driver.
Claims18
A method comprising:
- detecting, in a traveling process of a vehicle, whether an idle parking space exists in a traveling environment of the vehicle;
- adding, when the idle parking space exists in the traveling environment, idle parking space information about the idle parking space to a first parking space information set, wherein the first parking space information set records the idle parking space information;
- receiving first information, wherein the first information requests information about one or more effective parking spaces, and wherein the one or more effective parking spaces comprises one or more idle parking spaces that meets a preset condition, wherein the preset condition comprises a time difference between a time at which the idle parking space is detected and a current time being less than or equal to a preset duration;
- and
- outputting effective parking space information about the one or more effective parking spaces in response to the first information, wherein the effective parking space information comprises the idle parking space information in the first parking space information set.
2 more elements
An apparatus comprising:
- a detection module configured to detect, in a traveling process of a vehicle, whether an idle parking space exists in a traveling environment of the vehicle;
- a receiving module configured to receive first information, wherein the first information requests information about one or more effective parking spaces, and wherein the one or more effective parking spaces comprises one or more idle parking spaces that meets a preset condition, wherein the preset condition comprises a time difference between a time at which the idle parking space is detected and a current time being less than or equal to a preset duration;
- and
- a processor coupled to the detection module and the receiving module, wherein the processor is configured to:
- add, when the idle parking space exists in the traveling environment, idle parking space information about the idle parking space to a first parking space information set, wherein the first parking space information set records the idle parking space information;
- and
- output effective parking space information about the one or more effective parking spaces in response to the first information, wherein the effective parking space information comprises the idle parking space information in the first parking space information set.
4 more elements
A non-transitory computer-readable medium having stored therein computer program product comprising instructions that, when executed by a processor, cause an apparatus to:
- detect, in a traveling process of a vehicle, whether an idle parking space exists in a traveling environment of the vehicle;
- add, when the idle parking space exists in the traveling environment, idle parking space information about the idle parking space to a first parking space information set, wherein the first parking space information set records the idle parking space information;
- receive first information, wherein the first information requests information about one or more effective parking spaces, and wherein the one or more effective parking spaces comprises one or more idle parking spaces that meets a preset condition, wherein the preset condition comprises a time difference between a time at which the idle parking space is detected and a current time being less than or equal to a preset duration;
- and
- output effective parking space information about the one or more effective parking spaces in response to the first information, wherein the effective parking space information comprises the idle parking space information in the first parking space information set.
