Device and method for regulating the speed of a vehicle during maneuvering/parking of the vehicle
First Claim
1. A device for regulating a speed of a vehicle during maneuvering/parking of the vehicle, comprising:
- a detection device configured to detect an object in a surrounding area of the vehicle and to record a distance to a most proximate object in a travel direction of the vehicle;
a regulator configured to regulate a speed of the vehicle as a function of a position of an actuating device and the distance to the most proximate object in the travel direction of the vehicle, according to a predefined speed/distance relation; and
a control device configured to automatically control a braking element and a driving device of the vehicle as a function of a corresponding output signal of the regulator.

Abstract
A device and method for regulating the speed of a vehicle during maneuvering/parking of the vehicle. The device may comprise a detection device for detecting objects within the surrounding area of the vehicle and for recording the distance to an object lying closest in the travel direction of the vehicle; a regulator for regulating the speed of the vehicle as a function of the position of an actuating device and of the distance to the most proximate object in the movement direction of the vehicle according to a predefined speed/distance relation; and a control device for automatically controlling a braking element and a driving device of the vehicle as a function of a corresponding output signal of the regulator.

8. A method for regulating a speed of a vehicle during maneuvering/parking of the vehicle, comprising:
-
detecting objects within a surrounding area of the vehicle and recording a distance between a most proximate object to the vehicle in a travel direction and the vehicle, using a detection device;
regulating, using a regulator, a speed of the vehicle while maintaining a first predefined distance to the most proximate object in the travel direction, as a function of a position of an actuating device and of the distance to the most proximate object in the travel direction of the vehicle according to a predefined speed/distance relation; and
controlling a braking element and a driving device of the vehicle as a function of a corresponding output signal of the regulator, using a control device. - View Dependent Claims (9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17)
