Automated Parking System Mercedes Benz

Technology so the car can be parked parallel or perpendicular without the driver turning the steering wheel may already be familiar today, but what if the car can actually park itself? Yes, now you do not need anymore tired of looking for parking, Bosch and Daimler are working together to develop the automated parking system.

Not like parking assist feature which helps rotate the wheel when they want to park, features automatic parking or parking otonomous works by using a smartphone, where the driver does not need to find a parking spot. All processes will be sent from the smartphone to the vehicle control unit so that the car can park itself without the help of the driver at all.

It is possible from the infrastructure intelligence embedded in the parking lot and the vehicle control unit from the latest Mercedes-Benz. To that end, Bosch and Daimler cooperated with car2go of June 2015 and for the use of car sharing in the Mercedes-Benz used it.

"Parking will automatically be ready for mass production before driving technology automatically searches (otonomos)," Dr. Dick Hoseisel, Bosch board member who was instrumental in this project.

The way the system works-made automatic parking Bosch and Daimler is quite easy. First, the car owner can use a smartphone to call via the car2go vehicle. Cars will go to the owner after he was in a pick-up zone. The opposite scenario so that the owner dropped in the drop-zone and the car automatically find and parking can also be done.

In this partnership, Bosch developed a special infrastructure needed car park, then the sensor to see an empty parking lot, cameras and communication technologies. as well as in the car, which would then be adjusted by Daimler, which makes the user interface to customize the vehicle components. Daimler is developing in the car2go vehicle.

Although still new, automatic parking technology has previously been applied in the new BMW 7 Series uses the BMW Remote Key. So with the cooperation of Bosch and Daimler, clearly visible can increase competition between the giant German duo, Mercedes-Benz and BMW
