VEHICLE DRIVING ASSIST SYSTEM

A vehicle driving assist system includes a controller and a display. The controller is configured to generate a bird’s-eye view image based on information on images around a vehicle, respectively captured by cameras, and acquire a target route from a current location of the vehicle to a target stop location set by a driver. The display is configured to display the bird’s-eye view image and the target route and allow the driver to use the bird’s-eye view image to set a no entry area. The controller is configured to, when the controller determines that the vehicle enters the no entry area if the vehicle moves along the target route, correct the target route such that the vehicle does not enter the no entry area and cause the vehicle to move to the target stop location along the corrected target route and stop at the target stop location.

Targetless vehicular camera calibration system
11597319 · 2023-03-07 · ·

A vehicular camera calibration system includes a camera disposed at a vehicle, and an electronic control unit (ECU). The camera calibration system utilizes an intrinsic parameter of the camera and uses a kinematic model of motion of the vehicle that is determined at least in part via processing of multiple frames of captured image data. The camera calibration system, responsive to processing of multiple frames of image data captured by the camera as the vehicle moves along a path of travel, and based at least in part on (i) an intrinsic parameter of the camera and (ii) the kinematic model of motion of the vehicle, determines misalignment of the camera. The camera calibration system determines camera misalignment without use of a fiducial marker in the field of view of the camera as the vehicle moves along the path of travel and without use of reference points on the vehicle.

Vehicular trailer hitching assist system

A vehicular trailer hitching assist system includes a camera disposed at a rear portion of a vehicle and viewing at least rearward of the vehicle. An electronic control unit (ECU) includes an image processor operable to process image data captured by the camera. The ECU, via image processing of image data captured by the camera, detects a trailer rearward of the vehicle and determines a first path of travel for the vehicle to follow to maneuver the vehicle toward the trailer and to align the tow ball of the vehicle with a trailer hitch of the trailer. The ECU generates an output to maneuver the vehicle along the determined first path of travel. Responsive to detection of an object entering the first path of travel, the ECU determines a second path of travel for the vehicle to follow that avoids the detected object entering the determined path of travel.

Vehicle periphery display device

A vehicle periphery display device includes: an image acquisition unit that acquires a captured image from an imaging unit that images a periphery of a vehicle; and a control unit that causes a display unit to display a three-dimensional image representing the vehicle and a periphery of the vehicle based on the captured image, from a viewpoint which is located on a side opposite to a candidate of a target parking position with respect to a position of the vehicle and which faces a far side of the candidate of the target parking position, in a case where the target parking position for parking the vehicle is set.

Vehicle display control device and vehicle display control method for displaying predicted wheel locus

A vehicle display control device includes: a locus determination unit determining a predicted locus of a wheel of a subject vehicle according to a steering angle of the subject vehicle; and a display processing unit displaying an image of a field view of the subject vehicle including a vehicle body of the subject vehicle on a display device, and the display processing unit superimposes the guide line indicating the predicted locus determined by the locus determination unit on the image of the field view regardless of the steering angle of the subject vehicle, while semi-transparently displaying a portion of the guide line which overlaps with the vehicle body, thereby allowing visibility of the vehicle body.

Image forming device and image forming method

An image acquisition unit acquires camera images obtained by cameras, which are configured to photograph a periphery of the vehicle. An image synthesizing unit projects data of the camera images on a virtual projection surface, which corresponds to the periphery of the vehicle, and forms a synthetic image showing the periphery of the vehicle, which is viewed from a virtual view point, by using the data projected on the projection surface. A travelling-environment determination unit determines whether a travelling environment of the vehicle is an off-road or an on-road based on a signal from an other on-board device of the vehicle. The image synthesizing unit is configured to change a shape of the projection surface, which is for forming the synthetic image, according to whether the travelling-environment determination unit determines that the travelling environment is an off-road.

Trailer angle detection system using rear camera of vehicle

A vehicular trailer assist system includes a control that includes an image processor for processing image data captured by the camera representative of at least a portion of a trailer hitched to the vehicle. The control determines whether the trailer has been previously hitched to the vehicle. Responsive to the trailer not being previously hitched, the control operates in a trailer initial calibration mode. Responsive to the control recognizing the trailer, the control operates in a recognized trailer calibration mode. The control obtains calibration data unique to the hitched trailer. The control, responsive to obtaining the calibration data, processes image data captured by the camera using the calibration data to locate the current position of the trailer relative to the vehicle. The control, responsive to locating the current position of the trailer relative to the vehicle, determines a trailer angle based on the located current position.

VEHICULAR REAR BACKUP SYSTEM WITH VIDEO DISPLAY
20230158953 · 2023-05-25 ·

A vehicular rear backup system includes a rear backup digital camera disposed at a vehicle and a display device having a video display screen disposed in an interior cabin of the vehicle and viewable by the driver of the vehicle. Rear backup video images that are derived from image data captured by the rear backup digital camera are displayed on the video display screen no later than two seconds after the driver of the vehicle first changes propulsion of the vehicle during a new ignition cycle to reverse mode to commence a first backup event. Until the first backup event is completed, the video display screen displays rear backup video images. During a backup event of the vehicle, image data captured by the rear backup digital camera is provided to and is processed by an image processor of the system to detect presence of an object rearward of the vehicle.

VEHICULAR OCCUPANT MONITORING SYSTEM USING CENTRALIZED CAMERA WITH EXPANDED VIEW

A vehicular vision system includes a camera disposed within a cabin of a vehicle equipped with the vehicular vision system and positionable to view within an interior cabin of the vehicle and positionable to view exterior of the vehicle through at least one window of the vehicle. The system includes an actuator disposed at the vehicle and electrically operable to rotate the camera about an axis relative to the vehicle. Multiple frames of image data captured by the camera as the camera rotates about the axis are processed at an ECU for a plurality of vehicle functions. Respective frames of image data of the multiple frames of captured image data are processed for respective vehicle functions of the plurality of vehicle functions based on respective viewing directions of the camera when the respective frames of image data are captured by the camera.
