A vehicle driving assistance device includes: a sensing unit configured to capture a front image of a running vehicle; a processor configured to detect a lane by using the front image and estimate the lane by detecting objects around a road, on which the vehicle is running, by using the sensing unit; and an output unit configured to output the estimated lane.

An enhanced visibility system for a work machine includes an image capture device, a sensor, one or more control circuits, and a display. The image capture device is configured to obtain image data of an area surrounding the work machine. The sensor is configured to obtain data regarding physical properties of the area surrounding the work machine. The control circuits are configured to receive the image data and the data regarding the physical properties, and augment the image data with the data regarding the physical properties to generate augmented image data. The display is configured to display the augmented image data to provide an enhanced view of the area surrounding the work machine.

A vehicular vision system includes a plurality of cameras and an ECU. The cameras are in communication with one another via a vehicle network and image data captured by the cameras is provided to the ECU. Responsive to a type of driving maneuver of the vehicle, (i) the ECU generates a first control signal that enables automatic control of exposure, gain and white balance of one camera of the plurality of cameras and (ii) the ECU generates respective second control signals that disable automatic control of exposure, gain and white balance of at least one other camera of the plurality of cameras. Responsive to processing of captured image data, composite video images derived from image data captured by the plurality of cameras are synthesized, and composite images are displayed that provides bird's eye view video images derived from video image data captured by the cameras.

A system for capturing and displaying images may comprise a rearview assembly having WIFI capability; and a WIFI hub removably securable to a surface, the WIFI hub comprising at least one imager capable of capturing images of a scene. The WIFI hub may be capable of transmitting image data from the captured images to the rearview assembly. The rearview assembly may be capable of displaying images from the image data from the captured images.

The present disclosure relates to an image processing device, an image processing method, a program, and an image presentation system capable of presenting a more suitable image to the interior of a vehicle.

An image processing unit generates a presentation image to be presented to the interior of a second vehicle that is traveling, on the basis of a vehicle external image obtained by capturing an environment outside a first vehicle that is traveling. The present disclosure can be applied to, for example, a projector type presentation device.

A vehicular camera includes a lens holder, a plurality of printed circuit boards and a housing portion. The individual printed circuit boards are stacked and overlap one another. Circuitry disposed at a first printed circuit board is electrically connected with circuitry disposed at a second printed circuit board via board-to-board electrical connection. The first side of the first printed circuit board is adhesively bonded to the lens holder via cured adhesive. Thermally conductive material is disposed between and is in thermally-conductive contact with the first printed circuit board and the second printed circuit board. A first electrical connector is disposed at the second printed circuit board and electrically connects with a second electrical connector of an electrical connector portion of the housing portion as the housing portion is being joined with the lens holder to encase the plurality of printed circuit boards during assembly of the vehicular camera.

An image processing method for harmonizing images acquired by a first camera and a second camera connected to a vehicle and arranged in such a way as their fields of view cover a same road space at different times as the vehicle travels along a travel direction is disclosed. The method includes: acquiring by a selected camera, a first image at a first time; selecting a first region of interest bounding a road portion from the first image; sampling the first region of interest; acquiring by the other camera, a second image in such a way that the road portion is included in a second region of interest; sampling the second region of interest; and determining one or more correction parameters for harmonizing images acquired by the first and second cameras, based on a comparison between the image content of the first and second regions of interest.

A monitoring and surveillance system arranged for processing video data associated with a vehicle, wherein said system is arranged to operate in at least two operating modi, a first modus of said two modi being associated with a first latency requirement for said video data and a second modus of said two modi being associated with a second latency requirement, said system comprising a camera unit, arranged to be installed in said vehicle, wherein said camera unit is arranged for capturing video data; a streaming unit, arranged to be installed in said vehicle, and arranged for receiving said video data and for transmitting said video data over a telecommunication network to a video processing server; said video processing server arranged for selecting a modus of said at least two operating modi, and for communicating said selected modus, over said telecommunication network, to said camera unit such that said streaming unit can be tuned to said selected modus. Complementary systems and methods are also presented herein.

A vehicular sensing system includes a data processor disposed at a vehicle, a camera disposed at an in-cabin side of the vehicle windshield, and a range sensor disposed at the vehicle and having a field of sensing that overlaps a portion of the field of view of the camera. During a driving maneuver of the vehicle, the system detects another vehicle that is located within the radar sensors field of sensing and outside of the camera's field of view and determines movement of the range sensor-detected other vehicle relative to the vehicle. When the range sensor-detected other vehicle enters the field of view of the camera, the system, at least in part via processing at the data processor of image data captured by the camera, determines that the range sensor-detected other vehicle is an object of interest. A system output is provided for use by a driving assist system.

A vehicle such as a motor car (V) equipped with a radio equipment (14) is provided with a rearview camera 5 (10). Video frames from the rearview camera (10) are received at the radio equipment (14) and transmitted to a mobile communication device (S) such as a smart phone equipped with a video screen (S1) so that video frames from the rearview camera (10) are displayed on the 10 video screen (S1) of the mobile communication device (S).
