  • Publication number: 20200079358
    Abstract: A parking control device includes a detection unit configured to detect at least one possible parking position in which a vehicle is capable of being parked, and a control unit configured to, after a target parking position has been selected from among the possible parking positions, initiate movement of the vehicle into the target parking position on the basis of an operation over a prolonged time period having been performed by a user, the operation over the prolonged time period being an operation in which an operation input unit is continuously maintained in a predetermined state over a threshold time period or greater, the operation input unit being used at least when switching between forward movement and rearward movement of the vehicle.

  • Publication number: 20200079282
    Abstract: A parking control device includes a detection unit that detects at least one possible parking position in which a vehicle is capable of being parked, and a control unit that automatically operates a predetermined lighting device which can be viewed from the exterior of the vehicle, after a target parking position has been selected from among the possible parking positions, and initiates movement of the vehicle into the target parking position on the condition that the predetermined lighting device is operating.

  • Publication number: 20200079360
    Abstract: An automated parking device is provided with a disembarking guidance unit. In the case that an obstruction is determined to exist in the vicinity of a parking capable frame in accordance with a parking initiation instruction, then before a host vehicle enters the parking capable frame by an automated parking operation performed by a vehicle control unit, the disembarking guidance unit provides guidance to prompt vehicle occupants to disembark at a disembarking position that is based on an adjusted parking position, the positions of the vehicle occupants, and the position of the obstruction.

  • Publication number: 20180359399
    Abstract: According to one embodiment, the image processing device includes imagers disposed on an outer circumference of a mobile object for imaging surroundings of the mobile object to generate multiple images including mutually overlapping regions, and a processor that corrects the images on the basis of one color-value mean value and another color-value mean value to generate a peripheral image by combining the corrected images. The one color-value mean value is an average of color values of a target region set in an overlapping region of one of the images. Another color-value mean value is an average of color values of a target region set in an overlapping region of another one of the images.

  • Publication number: 20180359398
    Abstract: According to one embodiment, an image processing device includes imagers disposed on an outer circumference of a mobile object, for capturing surroundings of the mobile object to generate multiple images including mutually overlapping regions, a processor that corrects luminance of the images through a first correction, and corrects color differences in the images through a second correction different from the first correction, to generate a peripheral image by combining the corrected images. In the first correction, the processor corrects, based on a value regarding a luminance of a target region set in an overlapping region of a first one of the images, luminance of a target region in a second one of the images. In the second correction, the processor corrects color difference in the first or second one of the images based on a value regarding color-difference between the first one and the second one of the images.
