[0002] In recent years, with the continuous development of computer vision and smart cars, the smart cockpit has become another hot development trend in the automotive market, following smart driving. Also known as the intelligent vehicle occupant monitoring system (OMS), the smart cockpit not only incorporates some ADAS assisted driving technologies but also introduces several key new technologies for passengers, such as emotion recognition, forgotten object detection, posture recognition, and gesture recognition. Driving a car not only requires ensuring driver safety, but also the safety and riding experience of passengers.
[0003] As the image acquisition component of an OMS system, camera lenses require a wide field of view and high optical performance, such as high resolution. Furthermore, as a form of in-vehicle monitoring, they must operate 24 / 7, requiring high environmental stability. Currently, wide-angle lenses with a field of view of less than 120° are commonly used in OMS systems. Given the unique characteristics of OMS systems, the market demands optical lenses with a wider field of view to maximize the capture of in-vehicle image information. Summary of the Invention
