Advanced Parking System

What is a 3D Surround Parking System?

A 3D surround parking system is an advanced driver assistance system (ADAS) designed to support drivers during parking activities. Utilizing at least four cameras and an electronic control unit (ECU) for real-time image processing, this smart parking system provides a 360° view of the vehicle’s surroundings. The park assist feature makes parking safer and more manageable by offering drivers a comprehensive view of obstacles, pedestrians, and other vehicles, ensuring enhanced safety and convenience.

ART Innovation in Parking Systems

Our state-of-the-art parking systems feature 360-degree 3D surround view technology that enhances driver awareness during parking maneuvers. Compatible with all vehicle architectures, these systems are available in three configurations:

• Single Rear View Camera
• Dual Camera System (Front + Rear Cameras)
• Full 3D Surround View System (4 Cameras)

ART’s parking assist system combines cutting-edge technology with a deep passion for vehicle interconnection and innovation. Our system integrates data from parking sensors, cameras, and other sources to deliver a high-resolution, photorealistic 3D render of the vehicle in relation to its environment. This advanced integration allows the driver to visualize virtual obstacles, dynamic parking lines, and additional information on-screen, helping to prevent potential collisions during parking maneuvers.

The system merges all the information from sensors distributed around the car’s perimeter and from the cameras, providing a comprehensive view that enhances safety and ease of use. The ultra-wide-angle view and high resolution of ART cameras allow for clear distinction of pedestrians, obstacles, and moving objects during all phases of parking, whether entering, positioning, or exiting a car park.

The advanced computing power of the ART control unit (ECU) ensures perfect stitching of all video feeds captured by the cameras, resulting in a smooth, real-time 3D reconstruction of the vehicle. Depending on the specific scenario and maneuver, the system can highlight critical points and obstacles, providing a complete and immersive parking experience.

• Ultra-Wide-Angle View & High Resolution: ART cameras offer a clear distinction of pedestrians, obstacles, and moving objects during all parking phases;
• Multiple Camera Views: Depending on the parking scenario, the system highlights critical areas and obstacles, enhancing the overall user experience;
• Advanced ECU Processing: Enables seamless stitching of video feeds, providing a smooth and realistic 3D visualization in real-time.

ART’s 3D surround system consists of four specially designed Automotive cameras specially designed and built by ART, a powerful ECU, and an integrated software suite. In our latest ARTIST10 platform, the surround functionality can also be integrated as a software component, eliminating the need for an additional ECU, and further streamlining vehicle architecture.
