1. An apparatus comprising:
a plurality of cameras for capturing a plurality of video streams;
an image processor for generating an overhead view video stream in response to the plurality of video streams;
a processor configured for performing a parking assist algorithm including:
generating an augmented video stream including the overhead view video stream, a graphical representation of a host vehicle, and a first arrow for indicating an initial position of the host vehicle;
for generating a first control signal indicative of a first steering angle in response to receiving a first confirmation signal from a user interface indicative of a confirmation of the initial position of the host vehicle;
for generating a second control signal indicative of a second steering angle in response to a change in yaw reaching a first desired yaw;
generating a second arrow to be overlaid on the overhead view video stream indicative of a distance between the host vehicle and a curb;
generating a third control signal indicative of a third steering angle in response to receiving a second confirmation signal from the user interface indicative of a confirmation of the distance between the host vehicle and the curb; and
providing a user feedback indicative of a completion of the parking assist algorithm in response to the change in yaw reaching a second desired yaw.
