What Does Parking Assist Mean?

[Kyle]

Parking assist is an auxiliary system for parking and maneuvering besides braking. The parking assist system includes ultrasonic sensors embedded in the front and rear bumpers. The ultrasonic detection signals emitted by the sensors reflect when encountering obstacles. Upon receiving the reflected signals, the sensors promptly feed them back to the system for distance calculation, and alert the driver through sound or video about the distance between the vehicle and obstacles outside the driver's field of vision. Typically, when reversing, parking, or maneuvering the vehicle, maintaining a precise gap between the front and rear vehicles requires distance calculations accurate to the centimeter. It is these final few centimeters that drivers cannot estimate by sight alone. The parking assist system can detect obstacles outside the driver's field of vision and inform the driver of the distance between the vehicle and the obstacles through specific signals.
