Memory park assist is a Level 2+ automation feature in which a vehicle “learns” frequent parking patterns so it can park itself in familiar locations, such as at the driver’s home or office.

Drivers must instruct the vehicle to begin recording before executing the parking maneuver that they want it to perform autonomously. The system then detects and classifies all stationary objects in the environment to build a virtual map that is updated upon every subsequent visit — making minor adjustments as needed based on differences in the environment and vehicle position.

Automating the parking process can save drivers time and frustration, but doing so safely requires the vehicle to continuously monitor its surroundings and be intelligent enough to use that information effectively.

Consumers are increasingly expecting more advanced parking features, for both convenience and safety. OEMs are listening, and the race is on to deliver the safest, most reliable and most convenient system of automated parking. Memory park assist is an essential piece of that puzzle.
