Expert Explains ZF's Automated Valet Parking Solution

With its cost-efficient solution for automated parking, ZF helps to reduce the stress of finding parking spaces. The "Automated Valet Parking" system is one of the first worldwide that only relies on the vehicle's sensors and functions independent of an instrumented parking garage infrastructure. The ZF system finds a parking space without a driver on board and maneuvers the vehicle into it. The ZF solution is based on "Visual Simultaneous Localization and Mapping" (vSLAM) technology, which enables centimeter-accurate localization and real-time map generation
