Patent attributes
A parking assistance method provides parking assistance when parking a vehicle in a parking space equipped with a ground coil for supplying electric power via a wireless connection to a vehicle coil mounted on the vehicle, at least two ground marks indicating a position of the ground coil, and a parking frame. The parking assistance method switches from a bird's-eye image including the vehicle and a circumference of the vehicle as viewed from above the vehicle to an enlarged image showing a relative position between the ground coil and the vehicle coil on a larger scale than the bird's-eye image when an absolute value of a relative angle between a longitudinal direction of the parking frame and a front-rear direction of the vehicle is a predetermined value or smaller.
