Abstract:
The present invention relates to a vehicle head lamp driving apparatus and a vehicle provided with the same. The vehicle head lamp driving apparatus of the present invention comprises: a light output unit to output structured visible light to the front of a vehicle; a light receiving unit to receive reception light corresponding to the structured visible light; and a processor to calculate a distance to and a location of an object positioned in front of the vehicle, on the basis of the received reception light and structured visible light, wherein the light output unit comprises: a laser diode to output structured visible light having a first color; a light conversion unit for converting, into structured visible light having second and third colors, at least a part of the structured visible light having the first color; and a light diffusing unit for diffusing and outputting the structured visible light having the first to third colors to the front of the vehicle. Therefore, the distance to the object in front of the vehicle can be detected on the basis of visible light.
Abstract:
An around view provision apparatus and a vehicle including the same are disclosed. The around view provision apparatus may include a plurality of cameras provided to capture images of different regions around the vehicle. A memory may be provided to store a reference image for each of the cameras. A processor may calculate offset information for at least one of the plurality of cameras based on a difference between the reference image for the camera stored in the memory and an image captured by the camera. Respective images captured through the plurality of cameras may be combined using the offset information so as to generate an around view image
Abstract:
An around view provision apparatus and a vehicle including the same may include at least one camera mounted on a vehicle, a direction of the at least one camera being adjustable, and a processor to control the at least one camera to capture images around the vehicle based on a movement of the vehicle. The camera may be controlled to operate in a first mode when the vehicle is moving forward at a first prescribed speed or more and in a second mode when the vehicle is moving forward at less than a second prescribed speed or is moving backward. In the first mode, the camera may capture a lateral region that cannot be observed through a side view mirror or a rear view mirror. In the second mode, the camera may capture a larger region that is angled downward relative to the lateral region in the first mode.
