More Information
Summary:A parking system for a vehicle 1 comprises a sensor system comprising a plurality of sensors 2,3,4,5 for measuring distance data between the vehicle 1 and the environs thereof. A processing unit determines a parking space 6 and parking space boundaries 7a, 7b, 7c thereof on the basis of the measured distance data and calculates a trajectory to be followed in the course of parking in the parking space 6. At least one of the sensors 4 in the intact state is configured to detect at least one of the determined parking space boundaries 7a in the course of following the trajectory. If the sensor 4 in the course of following the trajectory does not detect a parking space boundary 7a, the processing unit activates a warning element, which by means of a warning signal instructs the driver to check the path of motion himself, and/or activates a brake system, which automatically brakes the vehicle 1.
