Abstract: A vehicular camera for a vision system of a vehicle includes a camera housing, a printed circuit board (PCB), and a lens barrel supporting a lens. The lens barrel includes a first end and a second end, the second end having a lens barrel flange. The lens barrel flange may be coupled to the camera housing via adhesive, and the PCB may be coupled to the camera housing via adhesive. The lens barrel flange and the PCB are coupled to the camera housing at a common side of the camera housing. With the lens barrel flange coupled to the first portion of the camera housing, and with the PCB coupled to the second portion of the camera housing, the imager is optically aligned with the lens supported at the lens barrel. Optionally, the camera may include a lens holder having a metal portion and a plastic portion.

Abstract: A vehicular vision system includes a camera module having a camera, a flexible ribbon cable and a main PCB. The main PCB has a first planar side and an opposing second planar side. First circuitry is disposed at the first planar side and second circuitry is disposed at the second planar side of the main PCB. The main PCB at its second planar side includes a second electrical connector, which is configured for mating with a first electrical connector of the flexible ribbon cable. Image data provided via the flexible ribbon cable at least to the second circuitry disposed at the second planar side of the main PCB is processed by a digital image processor for at least one driving assist system of the vehicle. At least a portion of a lens barrel of the camera extends through an aperture of a housing portion of the camera module.

Abstract: A camera assembly for a vehicle vision system includes an imager, a lens and a lens holder. The imager is disposed at a circuit element. The lens holder includes a barrel portion that houses the lens. The lens holder is positioned relative to the imager and includes a flange protruding outward from the barrel portion. The flange of the lens holder includes a generally flat structure having a planar surface that resides in a plane that is normal to an axis of the barrel portion. The lens holder is positioned relative to the imager such that the plane is parallel to the image plane and such that the planar flat surface is a predetermined distance from the image plane, thereby positioning the lens at a desired location relative to the imager.

Abstract: A method for testing a vehicular camera includes providing a vehicular camera and an environmentally-controlled chamber that has a window allowing visible light to pass into the interior of the chamber. A light-collimating device is provided exterior the environmentally-controlled chamber, and the vehicular camera is disposed within the interior of the environmentally-controlled chamber. Light emitted by the device passes through a window of the chamber to project a target within the chamber. Image data is captured with the vehicular camera that includes at least a portion of the projected target. Responsive to processing by an image processor of image data captured by the vehicular camera, a characteristic of the vehicular camera is estimated.
