Abstract
A hitch assistance system for assisting in maneuvering a vehicle toward a trailer includes a sensing system that includes an image sensor and a controller. The controller is configured to: identify a position of a coupler of the trailer based on image data received from the image sensor by utilizing a coupler detection model trained based on a library of images depicting couplers; control movement of the vehicle toward an aligned position based on the identified position of the coupler, wherein a hitch ball of the vehicle is aligned with the coupler of the trailer; determine a prospective location of the coupler in image data based on sensor data received from the sensing system; and crop image data based on the determined prospective location of the coupler.
