Abstract:
A display system for use in a vehicle is disclosed including a camera configured to capture frames corresponding to a field of view. The camera is in communication with a processing unit configured to receive data representative of objects within the captured frames from the camera. A display is in communication with the processing unit which is configured to display objects based on the data representative of the captured frames received by the processing unit. Multi-frame capture is utilized with differential inter-frame illumination to provide low-visibility object detection and display. Adverse environmental conditions whereby image display is enhanced include fog, rain, snow, dust, nighttime, and high-glare scenarios.
