Abstract:
Provided is a vehicular image capturing system capable of further improving characteristics such as a reduction in power consumption. The system includes: an event detection unit, installed in a vehicle, that outputs an event signal in accordance with an amount of change in an intensity of received light from a predetermined light receiving range; an image capturing unit, installed in the vehicle, that performs image capturing, the image capturing being an operation of generating and accumulating a charge in accordance with an intensity of received light from a predetermined image capturing range that at least partially overlaps with the predetermined light receiving range, and generating image information in accordance with an accumulation amount of the charge; and a control unit that outputs, to the image capturing unit, a control signal according to the event signal.
