Patent number: 9475492Abstract: Provided is a parking assist device such that, when a vehicle has reached an area corresponding to a backing start position, the angle of a current position with respect to a target parking position is placed in an appropriate range so as to facilitate subsequent guidance to the target parking position. In the parking assist device, when a vehicle (601) has reached any of a plurality of backing start positions (603 to 605), a state control unit (112) determines whether the angle of a current position with respect to a target parking position (602) is appropriate for guidance to a target parking position (602), and, if not, displays an angle correction indicating icon (606) on an image display means (102) to provide an indication for correcting the angle.Type: GrantFiled: November 1, 2013Date of Patent: October 25, 2016Assignee: PANASONIC INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY MANAGEMENT CO, LTD.Inventors: Kenji Okano, Hirotaka Kamiyama
