Sensor for detecting glare conditions

A sensor and / or system controller may process an image multiple times at multiple resolutions to detect glare conditions. A glare condition threshold used to determine whether a glare condition exists may be based on the resolution of the image. When the resolution of the image is higher, the glare condition threshold may be higher. The sensor and / or system controller may organize one or more adjacent pixels having similar intensities into pixel groups. The pixel groups may vary in size and / or shape. The sensor and / or system controller may determine a representative group luminance for the pixel group (e.g., an average luminance of the pixels in the group). The sensor and / or system controller may determine a group glare condition threshold, which may be used to determine whether a glare condition exists for the group of pixels and / or may be based on the size of the group.
