Abstract:
A vehicular vision system includes a camera module configured for mounting at an in-cabin portion of a windshield of a vehicle and including a circuit board and a camera that views forward of the vehicle and through the windshield. The camera includes an imaging sensor array. A data processor is operable to process image data captured by the imaging sensor array for at least one system of the vehicle. The imaging sensor array is electrically connected to circuitry of the circuit board via a flexible electrical connection. The imaging sensor array may be controlled via the flexible electrical connection. Image data captured by the imaging sensor array is carried via the flexible electrical connection. With the camera module mounted at the in-cabin portion of the windshield, the circuit board is tilted at an acute angle relative to the longitudinal axis of a lens barrel of the camera.
