Patent number: 11928406Abstract: Systems and methods are provided herein for creating and building a model of a unique infrastructure, such as a parking structure. The model may be created through the identification of various triggers by a vehicle traversing the infrastructure. The triggers may include, for example, sensors or other devices capable of sensing the vehicle within the infrastructure. The triggers may also be information received from the vehicle itself. Based on the triggers, it may be inferred that various places exist throughout the infrastructure. For example, it may be inferred through two subsequent triggers that a place exists between the two triggers. The place may be added to the model of the infrastructure in between the two triggers. The model may continue to grow in this manner.Type: GrantFiled: July 2, 2020Date of Patent: March 12, 2024Assignee: Ford Global Technologies, LLCInventors: Omar Makke, Oleg Gusikhin, Andrew Gliesman, Bardia Madani, Sina Fakhraee, David Kramer, Melinda Kaye Hunsaker
