Projecting a light pattern to enhance several image processing functions of a vehicle

Abstract

The invention relates to a method for processing an image representative of a scene facing a vehicle. A light intensity map is generated (501) from a generation model configured to receive as input a representative image of a scene facing the vehicle. The determined light intensity map is transmitted (502) to the light module for projection (503) of a light beam pixelated according to the light pattern corresponding to the generated light intensity map. A first image representative of the scene facing the vehicle is obtained (503) following the projection of at least one light beam pixelated according to the light pattern. The method includes determining (505; 506) at least a first image processing result by applying a first image processing function to the first image and a second image processing result by applying a second image processing function to the first image.

Claims

luminous of the pixelated light source of the vehicle's light module; wherein the control device is capable of transmitting the determined light intensity map to the light module, for projection of at least one pixelated light beam according to the light pattern corresponding to the generated light intensity map, into the scene facing the vehicle; wherein at least one camera is capable of obtaining at least one first representative image of the scene facing the vehicle, following the projection of at least one pixelated light beam according to the light pattern; and the assembly further comprising at least one first image processing module (104.1) configured to determine a first image processing result by applying a first image processing function to at least one first image obtained, and a second image processing module (104.2) configured to determine a second image processing result by applying a second image processing function to at least one first image obtained.

13. Vehicle comprising an assembly according to claim 12, further comprising a driver assistance module (109), wherein the driver assistance module is configured to implement at least one driver assistance function based on the first image processing result and / or based on the second image processing result.
