Abstract: A vehicular vision system includes a camera disposed at a vehicle and operable to capture multiple frames of image data during a driving maneuver of the vehicle. A control includes an image processor that processes frames of captured image data to determine feature points in an image frame when the vehicle is operated within a first range of steering angles, and to determine motion trajectories of those feature points in subsequent image frames for the respective range of steering angles. The control determines a horizon line based on the determined motion trajectories. Responsive to determination that the determined horizon line is non-parallel to the horizontal axis of the image plane, at least one of pitch, roll or yaw of the camera is adjusted. Image data captured by the camera is processed at the control for object detection.

Abstract: A method for calibrating a vehicular camera includes providing at least a front or rear camera and a side camera with overlapping fields of view, and calibrating the front or rear camera, capturing a calibrated frame of image data with the front or rear camera, and capturing a sideward frame of image data with a side camera. At least one feature is determined present in the overlapping region of the calibrated frame, and pixel positions of the determined feature are predicted for the side camera. Misalignment of the side camera is determined based on a comparison of the predicted pixel positions of the determined feature to the pixel positions of the determined feature in the sideward frame of image data captured by the side camera. Processing of image data captured by the side camera is adjusted to accommodate the determined misalignment.

Abstract: A trailer angle detection system for a vehicle towing a trailer includes a rearward viewing camera disposed at a rear portion of a vehicle, and an image processor operable to process image data captured by the camera. Responsive to processing of captured image data when the vehicle is towing a trailer, the trailer angle detection system determines the presence of the trailer at the rear of the vehicle and attached at the vehicle and determines feature vectors of the detected trailer over multiple frames of captured image data. Responsive to movement of the trailer relative to the vehicle, the trailer angle detection system tracks feature vectors for different positions of the detected trailer. The trailer angle detection system determines an angle of the trailer responsive to detection of tracking of feature vectors the trailer in the field of view of the camera over multiple frames of captured image data.

Abstract: A method for dynamically ascertaining alignment of a vehicular camera relative to a vehicle to which the camera is attached includes determining a plurality of steering angle ranges for the vehicle, each of which is a range of steering angles that approximates straight vehicle motion over less than two seconds of travel time of the vehicle while the vehicle is in motion and turning. Image data captured by a camera of the vehicle is processed to determine a central vanishing point when the vehicle is in motion and moving straight. A plurality of feature points are selected in the image frames for each steering angle range, and a vanishing point for a plurality of tracked motion trajectories for each steering angle range is determined. An alignment of the camera is determined based at least in part on the determined central vanishing point and a determined vanishing line.

Abstract: A vehicular trailer angle detection system includes a camera disposed at a rear portion of a vehicle. The system determines, via processing of frames of image data captured by the camera, features of a trailer present rearward of the vehicle and hitched to the vehicle by determining features that have similar position changes between a current frame of image data captured by the camera and a previous frame of image data captured by the camera. Responsive to movement of the trailer relative to the vehicle, and via processing of captured frames of image data, the system tracks determined features over multiple captured frames of image data for different positions of the trailer relative to the vehicle. The system determines angle of the trailer relative to the vehicle based at least in part on tracking of determined features of the trailer over multiple captured frames of image data.

Abstract: A vehicular vision system includes a plurality of cameras disposed at a vehicle and capturing image data as the equipped vehicle is driven along a traffic lane of a road. Captured image data is processed to detect a rearward-approaching vehicle and determine a path of travel of the detected rearward-approaching vehicle. Responsive to determining that the path of travel of the detected rearward-approaching vehicle is along a side traffic lane adjacent to the traffic lane along which the equipped vehicle is driven, the vehicular vision system (i) displays at a video display screen video images derived at least from image data captured by the side camera that is at the side portion of the equipped vehicle that is adjacent to the side traffic lane and (ii) overlays a transparent graphic overlay overlaying the displayed video images that is based on the determined path of travel of the detected rearward-approaching vehicle.

Abstract: A method for stitching image data captured by multiple vehicular cameras includes equipping a vehicle with a vehicular vision system having a control and a plurality of cameras disposed at the vehicle so as to have respective fields of view exterior the vehicle. Image data captured by first and second cameras of the plurality of cameras is processed to detect and track an object present in and moving within an overlapping portion of the fields of view of the first and second cameras. Image data captured by the first and second cameras is stitched, via processing provided captured image data, to form stitched images. Stitching of captured image data is adjusted responsive to determination of a difference between a feature of a detected and tracked object as captured by the first camera and the feature of the detected and tracked object as captured by the second camera.

Abstract: A method of detecting a trailer angle of a trailer being towed by a vehicle includes capturing frames of image data via a camera of the vehicle while the vehicle is towing a trailer, and, via processing by an image processor of frames of captured image data while the vehicle is towing the trailer, determining presence of the trailer being towed by the vehicle, and determining feature vectors of the trailer being towed by the vehicle. The feature vectors of the trailer are determined by determining features that have similar angular changes between a current frame of captured image data and a previous frame of captured image data. The angle of the trailer relative to the vehicle is determined responsive to tracking of determined feature vectors of the trailer present in the field of view of the camera over multiple frames of captured image data.
