Camera/Lens Mounting Platform for Vehicle
20230045970 · 2023-02-16 ·

A Camera/lens mounting platform (also referred to hereafter as the “platform”) for attachment to the window opening in a vehicle door is described. The platform is configurable to clamp to the doors of many, if not most, passenger cars and light duty trucks when a door's window is fully or nearly fully retracted. The platform offers a firm connection to the vehicle door and high stability to minimize blurring of photos and video.

SENSOR ASSEMBLY WITH LIDAR FOR AUTONOMOUS VEHICLES

A sensor assembly for autonomous vehicles includes a side mirror assembly configured to mount to a vehicle. The side mirror assembly includes a first camera having a field of view in a direction opposite a direction of forward travel of the vehicle; a second camera having a field of view in the direction of forward travel of the vehicle; and a third camera having a field of view in a direction substantially perpendicular to the direction of forward travel of the vehicle. The first camera, the second camera, and the third camera are oriented to provide, in combination with a fourth camera configured to be mounted on a roof of the vehicle, an uninterrupted camera field of view from the direction of forward travel of the vehicle to a direction opposite the direction of forward travel of the vehicle.
