Abstract: There is provided a parking aid control system (110) and method (600) for a vehicle (200). The control system (110) is configured to receive proximity data (125) indicative of a location of one or more objects (400) in an environment of the vehicle. The control system (110) is configured to output, to a parking aid interface (500) of the vehicle, parking aid data (135) indicative of the location of at least some of the one or more objects (400). A cancellation signal (155) is received indicative of a user input for inhibiting the parking aid interface (500). A gear change signal (145) is received, the gear change signal (145) being indicative of a change in a gear selection of the vehicle. The control system (110) is configured to suppress the inhibition of the parking aid interface in dependence on the gear change signal (145).

Abstract: Aspects of the present invention relate to a vehicle having: wheels associated with a projected path of the vehicle; doors including a rear door; a sensor device configured to provide distance data, the sensor device including a camera and/or a proximity sensor; and a parking aid display configured to provide output image data comprising a graphical indication representing an extent of the rear door into an environment external to the vehicle as the vehicle travels along the projected path of the vehicle.

Abstract: Aspects of the present invention relate to a control system (110) for a vehicle (200, 300), the control system comprising one or more controller, the one or more controller comprising an electrical input (140) arranged to receive image data (165) from one or more imaging devices (160), the image data indicative of an environment external to the vehicle (200, 300), a processor (120) arranged to generate one or more graphical indicators, each graphical indicator representing an extent of a projection (230, 310) from the vehicle into the environment external to the vehicle, wherein the extent of the projection is not visible in the image data, and an electrical output (150) arranged to output augmented image data comprising the image data and data indicative of the one or more graphical indicators for display on a display device.

Abstract: Aspects of the present invention relate to a control system (1) for controlling generation of a proximity alert for a vehicle (2). The control system comprises one or more controllers (80). The control system (1) is configured to determine an operating state of the vehicle (2) within a spatial environment in dependence on vehicle data from one or more vehicle systems (10, 30, 40, 50, 60). The operating state indicates whether the vehicle (2) is currently in an on-road state or an off-road state. The control system (1) controls generation of the proximity alert in dependence on the determined operating state. Aspects of the present invention also relate to a vehicle (2) comprising a control system (1); a method of controlling generation of a proximity alert; computer software and a non-transitory, computer-readable storage medium.
