PARKING ASSIST SYSTEM AND VEHICLE WITH AUTOMATED PARKING CAPABILITY

Abstract:

A brake noise at stationary steering is prevented while brake hold being in operation, in automated steering with parking assist control. An automated-parking control unit includes: an environment recognizer to recognize environment of a vehicle; a behavior controller to execute behavior control inclusive of steering and acceleration/deceleration, based on recognized information; a brake hold instructor to suspend the vehicle with the behavior control and hold the vehicle suspended until receiving behavior-related operation by a driver; an automated-parking controller to set a reverse-steering position, based on a current position of the vehicle and a desired parking position decided by the driver, between the current position and the desired parking position, move the vehicle from the current position to the reverse-steering position, and execute stationary steering at the reverse-steering position; and a brake fluid pressure controller to increase a brake fluid pressure when stationary steering is executed at the reverse-steering position.
