Parking assist apparatus, parking assist method, and computer program product
First Claim
1. A parking assist apparatus comprising:
- an area detection unit that detects a parking allowable area where parking of a vehicle is allowable;
a line detection unit that detects a pair of parking section lines provided on a track surface; and
a target position calculation unit that calculates a target parking position by using a detection result of the parking allowable area by the area detection unit and sets the target parking position closer to one of the pair of parking section lines when;
the parking allowable area is detected by the area detection unit,the parking section lines are detected by the line detection unit, andone of the pair of parking section lines is located outside the parking allowable area, and another one of the pair of parking section lines is located in the parking allowable area,wherein an obstacle located in a rear side direction of the vehicle is detected in backward traveling, and the parking allowable area is corrected on basis of the detection result, andthe target position calculation unit calculates the target parking position by using the corrected parking allowable area and sets the target parking position closer to the one of the pair of parking section lines located in the parking allowable area.

Abstract
A parking assist apparatus of an embodiment includes an area detection unit, a line detection unit, and a target position calculation unit. The area detection unit detects a parking allowable area where the parking of a vehicle is allowable. The line detection unit detects a parking section line provided on a track surface. The target position calculation unit calculates a target parking position by using a detection result of the parking allowable area by the area detection unit when the parking allowable area is detected by the area detection unit, the parking section line is detected by the line detection unit, and the parking section line is located outside the parking allowable area.
