    摘要: A fog detecting system for a vehicle includes a camera disposed at a vehicle and having a field of view forward of the vehicle, and a non-imaging sensor disposed at the vehicle and having a field of sensing forward of the vehicle. The camera captures image data and the non-imaging sensor captures sensor data. A control includes at least one data processor operable to process image data captured by the camera and sensor data captured by the non-imaging sensor. The control, responsive to processing of image data captured by the camera and processing of sensor data captured by the non-imaging sensor, determines presence of fog ahead of the vehicle and in the field of view of the camera and in the field of sensing of the non-imaging sensor.

    摘要: A vehicular vision system includes a camera module configured to be disposed at a vehicle. An image processor processes multiple frames of image data captured by the imager of the camera module. With the camera module disposed at the vehicle, the heating device is activated to heat a lens of the camera module responsive to determination of lens occlusion at the lens. Responsive at least in part to determination of lens occlusion at the lens, and via processing of frames of captured image data while the heating device is activated, the vehicular vision system determines a change in degree of lens occlusion occurring between capture of a previous frame of captured image data and capture of a current frame of captured image data. The heating device is deactivated responsive to determination that the change in degree of lens occlusion is less than a threshold amount.

    摘要: A vehicular vision system includes an interior-viewing camera disposed in a vehicle and viewing a driver of the vehicle, and a forward-viewing camera disposed at a windshield of the vehicle and viewing at least forward of the vehicle. Image data captured by the interior-viewing camera is transferred from the interior-viewing camera to the ECU and is processed at the ECU. Image data captured by the forward-viewing camera is transferred from the forward-viewing camera to the ECU and is processed at the ECU. Responsive to image processing of image data captured by the interior-viewing camera, at least one selected from the group consisting of (i) position of the driver's head is determined and (ii) direction that the driver's eyes are viewing is determined. Image data captured by the forward-viewing camera is processed for a plurality of driver assistant systems of the vehicle.

    摘要: A vehicular control system includes cameras and radar sensors disposed at an equipped vehicle. As the equipped vehicle travels forward along a traffic lane of a multi-lane road, the system, responsive at least in part to processing of image data captured by a forward-viewing camera and/or radar data captured by a forward sensing radar sensor, detects a leading vehicle traveling in the traffic lane that the equipped vehicle is traveling along. The system, responsive at least in part to processing of image data captured by a left-side camera or a right-side camera, detects another vehicle traveling in another traffic lane that is adjacent to the traffic lane along which the equipped vehicle is traveling. With the equipped vehicle operating in accordance with SAE Level 3, the system controls maneuvering of the equipped vehicle into the other traffic lane ahead of the other vehicle to pass the leading vehicle.

    摘要: A vehicular radar sensing system includes a camera and at least one radar sensor having a plurality of transmitting antennas and a plurality of receiving antennas. Individual transmitting antennas are arranged in multiple rows, and individual receiving antennas are arranged in multiple columns. The multiple rows of transmitting antennas include first and second rows of transmitting antennas, each row having at least four transmitting antennas. Each column of the multiple columns of receiving antennas comprises at least four receiving antennas. The multiple columns of receiving antennas are disposed between the first row of transmitting antennas and the second row of transmitting antennas. The vehicular radar sensing system applies two dimensional multiple input multiple output processing to outputs of the receiving antennas. The vehicular radar sensing system, responsive to processing of outputs of the receiving antennas, detects at least one object present forward of the vehicle for a driving assist system.
