1. A method for performing a parking assist control for automatically guiding a vehicle to a target parking position, comprising:
- calculating a first change of a vehicle direction based on output of a speed sensor and a steering angle obtained by a steering angle sensor;
calculating a second change of the vehicle direction based on a yaw rate obtained by a yaw rate sensor;
comparing the first change of the vehicle direction and the second change of the vehicle direction; and
determining whether or not the parking assist control is required to be stopped based on a result of a comparison between the first and second calculated changes of the vehicle direction.

Abstract
A method for performing a parking assist control for automatically guiding a vehicle to a target parking position includes the steps of calculating a change of a vehicle direction based on a traveling distance of the vehicle and a steering angle obtained by a steering angle sensor, calculating the change of the vehicle direction based on a yaw rate obtained by a yaw rate sensor, and determining whether or not the parking assist control is required to be stopped based on a result of a comparison between the calculated changes of the vehicle direction.

3. A parking assist apparatus for performing a parking assist control for automatically guiding a vehicle to a target parking position, comprising:
-
a traveling distance calculating means for calculating a traveling distance of a vehicle during an implementation of the parking assist control; a first calculating means for calculating a first change of a vehicle direction occurring within the traveling distance based on output of a speed sensor and output of a steering angle sensor; a second calculating means for calculating a second change of the vehicle direction occurring within the traveling distance based on a yaw rate obtained by a raw rate sensor; and a determining means for comparing calculated results obtained by the first calculating means and the second calculated means and determining that the parking assist control is to be stopped when a difference between the first change of the vehicle direction and the second chance of the vehicle direction is greater than a predetermined value. - View Dependent Claims (4, 5, 6, 7, 8)

9. A parking assist apparatus for performing a parking assist control for guiding a vehicle to a target parking position, comprising:
-
a first calculating means for calculating a first change of a vehicle direction based on output of a speed sensor and output of a steering angle sensor; a second calculating means for calculating a second change of the vehicle direction based on output obtained by a raw rate sensor; and a determining means for comparing calculated results obtained by the first calculating means and the second calculated means and determining that the parking assist control is to be stopped based on a result of a comparison between the calculated results when a difference between the first change of the vehicle direction and the second chanae of the vehicle direction is greater than a predetermined value. - View Dependent Claims (10, 11, 12)
