SYSTEM FOR RECOGNIZING SURROUNDINGS OF VEHICLE
Provided is a system for recognizing surroundings of a vehicle, and more particularly, a system for recognizing surroundings of a vehicle in which a camera and an illumination measurement photo diode system receive power from one vehicle interface connector, and a calculation processing device corrects brightness of a peripheral image of a vehicle photographed by the camera using illumination information measured by the illumination measurement photo diode system to more accurately recognize surroundings of the vehicle. The system for recognizing surroundings of a vehicle includes a camera mounted on the vehicle and configured to output image information obtained by photographing an image around the vehicle, an illumination measurement photo diode system configured to measure illumination of vehicle surroundings to output illumination information, a calculation processing device configured to receive the image information from the camera and receive the illumination information from the illumination measurement photo diode system to generate and output vehicle surroundings information, and a storage unit configured to receive and store the vehicle surroundings information generated by the calculation processing device.
1 . A system for recognizing surroundings of a vehicle, comprising:
a camera mounted on the vehicle and configured to output image information obtained by photographing an image around the vehicle;
an illumination measurement photo diode system configured to measure illumination of vehicle surroundings to output illumination information;
a calculation processing device configured to receive the image information from the camera and receive the illumination information from the illumination measurement photo diode system to generate and output vehicle surroundings information; and
a storage unit configured to receive and store the vehicle surroundings information generated by the calculation processing device.
2 . The system for recognizing surroundings of the vehicle according to claim 1 , wherein the calculation processing device corrects brightness of the image information received from the camera to generate the vehicle surroundings information using the illumination information received from the illumination measurement photo diode system.
3 . The system for recognizing surroundings of the vehicle according to claim 1 , wherein the calculation processing device switches the photographing mode of the camera when the illumination measured by the illumination measurement photo diode system is a preset illumination or less.
4 . The system for recognizing surroundings of the vehicle according to claim 1 , further comprising a fogging detection photo diode system configured to detect a fogging phenomenon of a window of the vehicle and output fogging information.
5 . The system for recognizing surroundings of the vehicle according to claim 4 , wherein the calculation processing device receives the fogging information from the fogging detection photo diode system, and sets the photographing mode of the camera to a fogging phenomenon photographing mode when a fogging of the vehicle measured by the fogging detection photo diode system is a preset value or more.
6 . The system for recognizing surroundings of the vehicle according to claim 4 , wherein, when the calculation processing device sets the photographing mode of the camera to the fogging phenomenon photographing mode, the calculation processing device outputs a fogging removal command, and
further comprising an air-conditioning system configured to receive the fogging removal command from the calculation processing device, blows air, from which moisture is removed, to the window of the vehicle, and remove the fogging phenomenon of the vehicle window.
7 . The system for recognizing surroundings of the vehicle according to claim 4 , further comprising a vehicle interface connector connected to the camera, the illumination measurement photo diode system, the fogging detection photo diode system and the calculation processing device to supply power thereto.
