Abstract: A vehicle parking assist apparatus acquires a feature image from a registration image representing a parking lot to register the feature image as parking lot information. The registration image is an image that a camera takes when the vehicle parking assist apparatus receives a registration request for registering a parking area in that the vehicle is parked. The vehicle parking assist apparatus determines that the vehicle has reached the parking area specified by the parking lot information when an image part that has the same feature as the feature image is included in a post registration image. The vehicle parking assist apparatus specifies an object image being an image representing a object from the registration image when the object is present in the area corresponding to the registration image; and acquires the feature image based on the registration image from which the specified object image is excluded.

Abstract: A parking support ECU 10 detects a parking area based on a camera image acquired by cameras 20A through 20D for photographing a surrounding area of an own vehicle. The ECU displays a parking completed location to superimpose the parking completed location on the parking surrounding area. The parking completed location is a location of the own vehicle when parking to the parking area is completed. In the case where an obstacle having a height equal to or greater than a first threshold height H1th is present in the parking area, the ECU extrapolates, as the parking completed location, a location obtained by moving a normally completed location in an entering direction of the parking area by a specific distance which is determined based on a location of the obstacle. The normally completed location is the parking completed location when no obstacle is present in the parking area.
