Abstract
A method and device with parking space navigation are provided. An operating method of a moving object includes: obtaining, from cameras of the moving object, images of surroundings of the moving object that are captured by the cameras; determining a candidate area for parking the moving object by performing object detection on the images; determining whether the candidate area is occupied by performing scene segmentation on the images; and based on determining that the candidate area is not occupied, determining whether the moving object is able to be parked into the candidate area based on a template area corresponding to a size of the moving object.
Claims20
An operating method of a moving object, the operating method comprising:
- obtaining, from cameras of the moving object, images of surroundings of the moving object that are captured by the cameras;
- determining a candidate area for parking the moving object by performing object detection on the images;
- determining whether the candidate area is occupied by performing scene segmentation on the images;
- and
- based on determining that the candidate area is not occupied, determining whether the moving object is able to be parked into the candidate area based on the candidate area and based on a template area corresponding to a size of the moving object.
A moving object comprising:
- cameras;
- one or more processors;
- a memory storing instructions configured to cause the processor to:
- obtain, from the cameras, images of surroundings of the moving object that are captured by the cameras;
- determine a candidate area for parking the moving object by performing object detection on the images;
- determine whether the candidate area is occupied by performing scene segmentation on the images;
- and
- based on determining that the candidate area is not occupied, determine whether the moving object is able to be parked into the candidate area.
A method performed by a computing device of a vehicle controlled by the computing device, the method comprising:
- capturing images by cameras of the vehicle;
- performing object detection on the images to generate bounding boxes of vehicles near the vehicle;
- selecting, as a nearest bounding box, one of the bounding boxes determined to be nearest to the vehicle;
- determining a candidate parking area by extending the nearest bounding box in a first direction of the bounding box or in a second direction of the bounding box;
- based on the images, determining that the candidate parking area is not occupied;
- based on the images, determining that the vehicle is able to be parked into the parking area;
- and
- based on the determining that the candidate parking area is not occupied and that the vehicle is able to be parked into the parking area, autonomously parking the vehicle into the candidate area.
