Ultrasonic Parking Assistance System
Block Diagram
Design Considerations
This figure represents an ultrasonic parking assistance system(UPAS) with the implementation of a four-channel ultrasonic distance measurement system using PSoC. The implementation in the block diagram measures the distance between the ultrasonic transducers and any nearby objects. The system must provide the distance measurement to the rest of the vehicle to be used as desired.
PSoC offers more integration than any standard MCU helping reduce BOM, improve quality and time to market.
