SYSTEM FOR THE INFRASTRUCTURE-SUPPORTED ASSISTANCE OF A MOTOR VEHICLE - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18262002 titled 'SYSTEM FOR THE INFRASTRUCTURE-SUPPORTED ASSISTANCE OF A MOTOR VEHICLE

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes a system for infrastructure-supported assistance of a motor vehicle with at least partial automation in a parking lot. The system includes a data-processing device, a communication device, and a controller that switches to a safe state in case of errors during assistance.

  • The system is designed to provide infrastructure-supported assistance to a motor vehicle in a parking lot.
  • It includes a data-processing device to gather assistance data, a communication device to transmit data to the vehicle, and a controller to manage errors.
  • The controller switches to a safe state if errors occur, ensuring communication between the system and the vehicle is not disrupted.

Potential Applications

This technology could be applied in:

  • Automated parking systems
  • Autonomous vehicle parking assistance
  • Smart parking solutions

Problems Solved

  • Ensures safe and efficient parking assistance for vehicles with partial automation
  • Minimizes errors and disruptions during infrastructure-supported assistance
  • Improves overall parking lot management and vehicle navigation

Benefits

  • Enhanced safety for both vehicles and pedestrians in parking lots
  • Increased convenience for drivers using automated parking systems
  • Optimized use of parking spaces and improved traffic flow in parking facilities

Potential Commercial Applications

"Infrastructure-Supported Assistance System for Automated Parking" could be used in:

  • Parking lot management systems
  • Automotive technology companies
  • Smart city infrastructure development

Possible Prior Art

One possible prior art could be the use of automated parking systems in commercial parking facilities, where vehicles are guided to parking spots using infrastructure support.

The article does not address the cybersecurity measures implemented to protect the communication network from potential threats.


Original Abstract Submitted

A system for the infrastructure-supported assistance of a motor vehicle guided with at least partial automation within a parking lot. The system includes: a data-processing device, which is designed to ascertain infrastructure assistance data for the infrastructure-supported assistance of the motor vehicle guided with at least partial automation within the parking lot; a communication device, which is designed to transmit the infrastructure assistance data to the motor vehicle over a communication network; and a controller, which is designed such that, when an error of at least one of the data-processing device and the communication device during the infrastructure-supported assistance is detected, the controller switches to a safe state, such that communication between the system and the motor vehicle is at least disturbed, in particular interrupted.
