Description

Technical Field

[0002] Compared with traditional rearview mirrors, automotive electronic rearview mirrors can eliminate blind spots and allow drivers to see clearly in harsh scenes. However, existing electronic rearview mirrors are based on a single-domain hardware environment and use a single operating system to implement all the functions of the electronic rearview mirror. They cannot take into account startup speed, fast algorithm detection, system security, and low latency. When in use, the CPU obtains image data from the camera, displays it on the screen after processing, and superimposes the algorithm detection results on the screen. Algorithm detection and actual camera images on the screen both require the use of camera data. If the algorithm detection is not timely, it will lead to greater delays, because it is necessary to provide an algorithm operating environment, generally running Linux or Android operating systems, which will result in a slow startup speed, and the complexity of the system will also lead to instability. Therefore, it is very necessary to design an electronic rearview mirror system. Summary of the invention
