Abstract
The present invention provides a digital ultrasonic obstacle detection system for vehicles, which can tune reference data, which is the basis for the determination of whether an obstacle has been detected. This system executes a parking assist mode or a tuning mode in response to a command from an external master. The system is configured to store reflected wave signal data received from a sensor unit, in memory and transmit the reflected wave signal data to the external master via vehicle communication, at the time of executing the tuning mode.
Claims8
An ultrasonic obstacle detection system for vehicles, comprising:
- a sensor unit for generating ultrasonic waves and receiving a reflected wave signal from an object;
- and
- a Parking Assist System (PAS) unit connected via vehicle communication and configured to execute a parking assist mode or a tuning mode in response to a command from an external master, which PAS unit, when executing the tuning mode, stores data of the reflected wave signal received from the sensor unit in a memory and transmits the stored reflected wave signal data to the external master via vehicle communication.
