Abstract: A method for directing a vehicle to a parking space within an environment is disclosed. The method includes selecting a parking space from a collection of parking spaces within the environment, further selecting one or more lighting devices within the environment based at least on a location of the selected parking space, and sending a signal to the one or more lighting devices to generate a lighting pattern visible to a driver of the vehicle, where the lighting pattern directs the driver to navigate the vehicle toward the parking space. In addition, the vehicle may be navigated using radio navigation algorithms based on beacon signals broadcasted from streetside devices, such as lighting devices or parking meters.

Abstract translation: 公开了一种将车辆引导到环境中的停车位的方法。 该方法包括从环境中的停车位集合中选择停车空间，至少基于所选择的停车位的位置进一步选择环境内的一个或多个照明设备，以及向一个或多个照明设备发送信号 以产生对车辆的驾驶员可见的照明模式，其中照明模式引导驾驶员朝向停车位导航车辆。 此外，可以使用基于从街道设备广播的信标信号（例如照明设备或停车收费表）的无线电导航算法导航车辆。
