Title: PARKING SYSTEM FOR VEHICLE AND VEHICLE
Abstract: Disclosed is a parking system for a vehicle, which performs a parallel parking maneuver in a space having no parking line and includes : an object detection apparatus configured to generate information about at least one nearby vehicle which is already parked; and a processor configured to: set an edge point of the at least one nearby vehicle based on the generated information, set a virtual reference line based on the edge point, and provide a control signal so that the vehicle is parallel parked with a body thereof having passed the virtual reference line.

Claims: number: 1
text: A parking system (750) for a vehicle (100), which is configured to perform a parallel parking maneuver in a space having no parking line, the parking system (750) comprising:
number: 2
text: The parking system (750) according to claim 1, wherein the processor (757) is further configured to:
number: 3
text: The parking system (750) according to claim 2, wherein the processor (757) is further configured to generate the information about the predicted position so that the vehicle (100), when parked, has a heading angle of between -7 degrees and +7 degrees with reference to the virtual reference line (1030).
number: 4
text: The parking system (750) according to claim 2 or 3,
wherein the object detection apparatus (300) is further configured to generate information about a structure close to the virtual reference line, and
wherein the processor (757) is further configured to generate the information about the predicted position so that a portion closest to the structure in the body of the vehicle (100) is a preset distance or more from the structure.
number: 5
text: The parking system (750) according to any one of claims 1 to 4,
wherein the object detection apparatus (300) is further configured to generate information about a curb (1310) adjacent to the at least one nearby vehicle (1010, 1020), and
wherein the processor (757) is further configured to:
number: 6
text: The parking system (750) according to any one of claims 1 to 5, wherein the processor (757) is further configured to set the edge point by comparing a travelling trajectory of the vehicle (100) and a position of the at least one nearby vehicle (1010, 1020) during sensing of a parking available space.
number: 7
text: The parking system (750) according to any one of claims 1 to 6,
wherein the object detection apparatus (300) is further configured to generate information about a first nearby vehicle (1010) which is already parked, and
wherein the processor (757) is further configured to:
number: 8
text: The parking system (750) according to any one of claims 1 to 7,
wherein the object detection apparatus (300) is further configured to generate first information about a first nearby vehicle (1010) being already parked, and second information about a second nearby vehicle (1020) being already parked, and
wherein the processor (757) is further configured to provide a control signal so that the vehicle (100) is parallel parked in a space between the first nearby vehicle (1010) and the second nearby vehicle (1020).
number: 9
text: The parking system (750) according to claim 8,
wherein the processor (757) is further configured to:
number: 10
text: The parking system (750) according to claim 9,
wherein the processor (757) is further configured to: when the first reference line (1031) and the second reference line (1032) coincide with each other, provide a control signal so that the vehicle (100) is parallel parked with a body thereof having passed the first reference line.
number: 11
text: The parking system (750) according to claim 9 or 10,
wherein the processor (757) is further configured to, when the first reference line (1031) and the second reference line (1032) do not coincide with each other,
set a third reference line (1033) positioned in a middle between the first reference line (1031) and the second reference line (1032); and
provide a control signal so that the vehicle (100) is parallel parked with a body thereof having passed the third reference line.
number: 12
text: The parking system (750) according to any one of claims 9 to 11, wherein the processor (757) is further configured to:
number: 13
text: The parking system (750) according to any one of claims 8 to 12, the processor (757) is further configured to, when one vehicle (100) is allowed to be parked in the space between the first nearby vehicle (1010) and the second nearby vehicle (1020), provide a control signal so that the vehicle (100) is parallel parked in a middle between the first nearby vehicle (1010) and the second nearby vehicle (1020),
and/or
wherein the processor (757) is further configured to, when two or more vehicles are allowed to be parked in the space between the first nearby vehicle (1010) and the second nearby vehicle (1020), provide a control signal so that the vehicle (100) is parallel parked closer to the first nearby vehicle (1010) than the second nearby vehicle (1020).
number: 14
text: The parking system (750) according to any one of claims 1 to 13,
wherein the object detection apparatus (300) is further configured to generate information about a curb (2110) adjacent to the at least one nearby vehicle (1010, 1020), and
wherein the processor (757) is further configured to provide a control signal so that the vehicle (100) is parallel parked within a first distance range from the curb (2110),
and/or
wherein the processor (757) is further configured to:
number: 15
text: The parking system (750) according to any one of claims 1 to 14,
wherein the object detection apparatus (300) is further configured to generate information about a wall (2110) adjacent to the at least one nearby vehicle (1010, 1020), and
