Auto panning camera mirror system including image based trailer angle detection
An method for automatically panning a view for a commercial vehicle includes analyzing a portion of a first view at a first time to determine a position of a vehicle feature within the first view, wherein the first view is a subset of a second view, estimating an expected position of the vehicle feature in the first view at a second time subsequent to the first time, defining a region of interest centered on the expected position of the vehicle feature in the second view and analyzing the region of interest to determine an exact position of the vehicle feature at the second time, and determining a current trailer angle based on a position of the vehicle feature within the second view.
METHODS AND SYSTEMS FOR FLUID LEAK DETERMINATION
Methods and systems are provided for a fluid leak diagnostic. In one example, a method may include intrusively increasing a fluid pump displacement to determine if an internal fluid leak is occurring. The method may further include adjusting a parking routine to determine if an external fluid leak is occurring.
Image processing apparatus, imaging apparatus, camera monitor system, and image processing method
An image processing apparatus includes a communication interface configured to receive a first captured image capturing a face of a subject in a moving body, and a controller configured to change at least one of a position and a size of a specific region in either the first captured image or a second captured image different from the first captured image, according to at least one of a position and an orientation of the face of the subject determined on the basis of the first captured image, as well as a direction of a line-of-sight of the subject.
IMAGING DEVICE
In an imaging device mounted in the interior of a vehicle, a camera module is arranged so as to image the area ahead of the vehicle via a windshield. A processing substrate is provided integrally with the camera module and includes a processing part that controls the camera module. When the side on which an incident light receiving face exists in the camera module is defined as camera front and the side opposite to the camera front is defined as camera rear, the whole processing substrate is arranged at the camera rear with respect to the camera module.
Vehicular collision mitigation system
A collision mitigation system for a vehicle includes a plurality of cameras, a radar sensor and/or lidar sensor, and a control that may process data captured by the cameras, radar sensor and/or lidar sensor. When the vehicle is moving and responsive at least in part to a determination that the vehicle is approaching an object present forwardly of the vehicle, the control is operable to control application by an automatic emergency braking system of a vehicle brake of the vehicle to mitigate collision with the object. Responsive to determination that a following vehicle is following the vehicle and when the determined following vehicle is within a threshold distance from the vehicle and is approaching the vehicle above a threshold rate of approach, the control adjusts automatic emergency braking of the vehicle to mitigate collision at the rear of the vehicle by the determined following vehicle.
Work vehicle with monitor to display overhead image of work vehicle, and image displaying method for displaying overhead image of work vehicle
A work vehicle includes circuitry configured to determine a focused area based on signals detected by work and travel situation detection sensors. The circuitry is configured to determine a prioritized display image among images captured by cameras, the prioritized display image including the focused area. The circuitry is configured to compose the images captured by the cameras by view-point converting the images to generate an overhead image around the vehicle body. The circuitry is configured to generate at least one monitor display image including a first display area in which the overhead image is displayed and a second display area in which the prioritized display image is displayed.
AUTOMATIC PANNING SYSTEM
An automatic panning system and method adapted for a vehicle with an attached trailer. The automatic panning system comprises an image capturing means adapted to capture image data with a view of the trailer and the automatic panning system is adapted to analyze the image data to identify at least one elongated element of the trailer, project a vector in the image data based on said elongated element, establish at least one reference vector, and identify an interception point of the reference vector and said projected vector.
IMAGE DISPLAY SYSTEM, IMAGE DISPLAY METHOD, AND RECORDING MEDIUM
An image display system includes a first processor, a second processor, and a comparator. The first processor acquires a behavior estimation result of a vehicle, and generates future position information after a predetermined time passes of the vehicle based on the behavior estimation result. The second processor acquires present information about the vehicle, and generates present position information on the vehicle and a peripheral object based on the acquired information. The comparator compares the future position information on the vehicle and the present position information on the vehicle and the peripheral object, and generates present image data indicating present positions of the vehicle and the peripheral object and future image data indicating future positions of the vehicle and the peripheral object. Further, the comparator allows a notification device to display a present image based on the present image data and a future image based on the future image data together.
Camera with curled lid and spring element for PCB positioning
A camera for a vehicle vision system includes a housing having a front housing portion with a lens barrel and lens assembly, and a rear housing portion with a connector. The front and rear housing portions are mated together to establish an inner cavity in the housing. An imager circuit board is disposed in the inner cavity of the housing, with an imager disposed at the imager circuit board and optically aligned with the lens assembly. When the front and rear housing portions are mated together, perimeter flanges of the front and rear housing portions may be curled to have multiple folds to seal the front housing portion relative to the rear housing portion. The imager circuit board may be held in the inner cavity by a spring element that urges the imager circuit board in a direction toward the lens assembly.
CAMERA MOUNTING STRUCTURE, CAMERA APPARATUS, AND JACKET
Provided is a camera mounting structure for attaching an in-vehicle camera to a vehicle. An optical protection window cover 503 is inserted into an opening 500 on the vehicle body side together with a camera 500 main body. It is possible to reduce the proportion of the water droplet 502 adhering to the surface of the optical protection window cover 503 with respect to the viewing angle of the camera 500, enabling the observer to visually recognize the presence of the water droplet 502 in visual examination of an image. In addition, the optical protection window cover 503 uses its body 602 to cover the side surface of a camera apparatus main body to implement positional alignment of a camera apparatus.
