Abstract :
Parking is a challenging task for many drivers. A vision based parking assistant system for autonomous parking which detects parking lots and precisely determines their pose using a stereo camera system is described. Careful calibration of the cameras and the fitting of vehicle models to the stereo data in 3D space enable a high precision estimation of the parameters which are necessary for autonomous parking.
