    Abstract: A vehicular trailering assist system includes a camera disposed at a vehicle and capturing image data representative of at least a portion of a trailer hitched to the vehicle. The vehicular trailering assist system, responsive to processing of captured image data, determines that the system has not been previously calibrated for the trailer hitched to the vehicle. The vehicular trailering assist system, responsive to determining that the system has not been previously calibrated for the trailer, determines whether a dedicated calibration maneuver is triggered. The vehicular trailering assist system, responsive to determining that the dedicated calibration of the trailer is not triggered and responsive to processing of captured image data, monitors maneuvers performed by the vehicle while the trailer is hitched to the vehicle without prompting the driver for calibration maneuvers. The vehicular trailering assist system, using the monitored maneuvers, calibrates the system for the trailer.

    Abstract: A vehicular trailer assist system includes a camera at a vehicle and viewing at least a portion of a trailer hitched to the vehicle. A control, responsive to processing of frames of image data captured by the camera and during a calibration maneuver by the vehicle, determines an initial trailer template of trailer hitched to the vehicle. The control, during a turning portion of the calibration maneuver, and at least in part via processing of frames of image data captured by the camera, determines a hitch ball location of a hitch of the vehicle based on the determined initial trailer template. The control, after completion of the calibration maneuver, determines a current trailer angle of the trailer relative to the vehicle via processing of frames of image data captured by the camera and based on the determined hitch ball location as the vehicle is driven along a road.

    Abstract: A vehicular trailering assist system includes a forward-viewing camera disposed at a vehicle and viewing at least forward of the vehicle and a rear backup camera disposed at the vehicle and viewing at least a portion of a trailer hitched to the vehicle. With the vehicle operating in a calibration state, the vehicular trailering assist system, via processing of image data captured by the rear backup camera, determines a portion of the trailer hitched to the vehicle and determines a trailer collision angle. With the trailer hitched to the vehicle and with the vehicle not operating in the calibration state, the vehicular trailering assist system, via processing of image data captured by the rear backup camera, determines a current angle of the trailer relative to a longitudinal axis of the vehicle and determines whether the determined current trailer angle is within a threshold amount of the determined trailer collision angle.

    Abstract: A vehicular trailer assist system includes a camera disposed at a vehicle and viewing at least a portion of a trailer hitched to the vehicle. The system, during a first turning maneuver of a calibration maneuver of the vehicle and trailer, stores a subset of the frames of image data captured by the camera. Each stored frame of the stored subset of the frames captures the trailer at a respective different trailer angle relative to a longitudinal axis of the vehicle. The system determines image data edges for each stored frame of image data. The system, after performing the first turning maneuver of the calibration maneuver and during a second turning maneuver of the calibration maneuver, and based at least in part on the determined image data edges for the stored frames of image data, determines a jack-knife angle of the trailer relative to the longitudinal axis of the vehicle.

    Abstract: A vehicular trailering assist system includes a rear backup camera disposed at a vehicle and viewing at least rearward of the vehicle and at least a portion of a trailer hitched to the vehicle. The camera captures frames of image data that include image data representative of at least a portion of the trailer hitched to the vehicle. Frames of image data captured by the camera are processed at an electronic control unit during a calibration maneuver by the vehicle to determine a trailer collision angle. The vehicular trailering assist system, after completion of the calibration maneuver, determines a current trailer angle of the trailer relative to a longitudinal axis of the vehicle as the vehicle is driven along the road. The vehicular trailering assist system determines whether the current trailer angle is within a threshold amount of the determined trailer collision angle.
