Vehicle side-view imaging system

Abstract

The invention discloses a vehicle side-view imaging system for removing driving blind zones. The side-view imaging system comprises a camera which is arranged on a vehicle for aligning and shooting contours at two sides outside the vehicle; a steering detection unit which obtains steering state of the vehicle; a control unit which judges the steering state so as to start the camera corresponding to the steering; and a display unit for displaying video recorded by the currently operating camera. Compared with the prior art, the side-view imaging system has the following advantages: the design of the camera helps remove the visual blind zone of a driver in a driving cab, and the driver can simultaneously operate the vehicle and monitor road conditions outside the vehicle by display from a display, thus achieving the purpose of safe driving, particularly safe parking, and further improving intelligent degree of automobiles.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a vehicle side-view imaging system. Background technique [0002] When the driver is driving, except for the reflection range and visual range of the reflective device on the car, most of the other positions are difficult for the driver to see, which belongs to the driver's "blind spot". In actual operation, in most cases, the driver Drive with experience and feelings, so many unsafe factors are hidden. For example, on a city road, the sidewalk is a step higher than the driveway. When driving, the driver can only see the steps of the sidewalk in the distance, but not the steps under his own car. The steps blow out the tires of the car; and when the car is turning, the tires may be threatened because the steps or other sharp small objects on the side of the road cannot be seen; Sometimes the distance is not estimated and the body is scratched by the corner; or when the car is about to turn or overtake, first use the rearview m...

[0002] When the driver is driving, except for the reflection range and visual range of the reflective device on the car, most of the other positions are difficult for the driver to see, which belongs to the driver's "blind spot". In actual operation, in most cases, the driver Drive with experience and feeling, so many unsafe factors are hidden

For example, on a city road, the sidewalk is a step higher than the driveway. When driving, the driver can only see the steps of the sidewalk in the distance, but not the steps under his own car. The steps blow out the tires of the car; and when the car is turning, the tires may be threatened because the steps or other sharp small objects on the side of the road cannot be seen; Sometimes the distance is not estimated and the body is scratched by the corner; or when the car is about to turn or overtake, first use the rearview mirror outside the car to check whether there is a car behind the car, but the viewing angle of the rearview mirror is limited after all. , In many cases, it is invisible. For example, when driving, you do not drive straight but with a slope, so the angle of view of the rearview mirror will also be tilted. You can see the next lane through the rearview mirror. so can't see

[0003] All of the above situations indicate that the safety and intelligence of automobiles and the technology of corresponding equipment and instruments need to be improved.
