[0002] At present, in order to realize intelligent assisted driving and reduce the cost of use, a vehicle-mounted OMS camera (for example, a 5MP OMS camera) connected to the vehicle-mounted processor is usually installed on a motor vehicle. The vehicle-mounted OMS camera processes the collected original image based on the virtual channel technology of the AB frame mode to generate RGB color images and IR infrared images respectively, and then outputs the RGB color image and IR infrared image through an output channel, and then serializes them together and outputs them to the vehicle-mounted processor via a connector. After the vehicle-mounted processor deserializes, it also needs to process based on the virtual channel technology to obtain the RGB color image and IR infrared image respectively, wherein the RGB color image is used as the input image of the vehicle-mounted OMS system (Occupancy Monitoring System), and the IR infrared image is used as the input image of the vehicle-mounted DMS system (Driver Monitoring System).
[0003] However, the inventors found during the specific implementation that there are still many vehicle processors on the market that do not support virtual channel technology, resulting in relatively poor compatibility of existing vehicle-mounted OMS cameras, and in particular, it is difficult to use them for corresponding upgrades to existing old motor vehicles. Utility Model Content
[0004] The technical problem to be solved by the embodiment of the utility model is to provide a vehicle-mounted OMS camera that can effectively improve compatibility.
[0005] In order to solve the above technical problems, the embodiment of the utility model provides the following technical solutions: a vehicle-mounted OMS camera, used to connect the vehicle-mounted OMS system and the vehicle-mounted DMS system respectively, comprising:
[0006] An image sensor for collecting video images inside a motor vehicle;
[0007] An image processor connected to the image sensor, used to extract original images from the video image frame by frame and process the original images based on virtual channel technology to generate RGB color images and IR infrared images respectively, and the image processor is respectively provided with a first image transmission port for outputting the RGB color image and a second image transmission port for outputting the IR infrared image;
[0008] A first connector connected to the first image transmission port and used for externally connecting to the vehicle-mounted OMS system to output the RGB color image to the vehicle-mounted OMS system; and
[0009] A second connector is connected to the second image transmission port and is used to externally connect to the vehicle-mounted DMS system to output the IR infrared image to the vehicle-mounted DMS system.
[0010] Furthermore, the vehicle-mounted OMS camera also includes:
[0011] The first serializer is connected to the first image transmission port and the first connector respectively, and is used for serializing the RGB color image output by the first image transmission port and then outputting the serialized image to the vehicle-mounted OMS system via the first connector.
[0012] Furthermore, the vehicle-mounted OMS camera also includes:
[0013] The second serializer is connected to the second image transmission port and the second connector respectively, and is used for serializing the IR image output from the second image transmission port and then outputting the serialized image to the vehicle-mounted DMS system via the second connector.
[0014] Furthermore, the first connector is a Fakra connector.
[0015] Furthermore, the second connector is a Fakra connector.
[0016] After adopting the above technical scheme, the embodiment of the utility model has at least the following beneficial effects: the embodiment of the utility model connects the first connector and the second connector to the first image transmission port and the second image transmission port of the image processor respectively, uses the first connector to output the RGB color image to the vehicle-mounted OMS system and uses the second connector to output the IR infrared image to the vehicle-mounted DMS system, and uses two independent connectors to realize the separate output of the RGB color image and the IR infrared image. The vehicle-mounted OMS system and the vehicle-mounted DMS system can obtain the RGB color image and the IR infrared image respectively without supporting the virtual channel technology, thereby improving the compatibility of the vehicle-mounted OMS camera, and is particularly suitable for the corresponding upgrade and transformation of the existing motor vehicles that use the vehicle-mounted processor that does not support the virtual channel technology.
