Camera system and traveling control system
A camera system including an imaging device that captures a first image by a normal exposure including only one exposure and that captures a second image by a multiple exposure including a plurality of exposures; and a control circuit. The the imaging device captures the second image in a first frame period, and the control circuit determines, based on the second image captured in the first frame period, whether to capture an image by the normal exposure or capture an image by the multiple exposure in a second frame period following the first frame period.
1. A camera system comprising:
an imaging device that captures a first image by a normal exposure including only one exposure and that captures a second image by a multiple exposure including a plurality of exposures; and
a control circuit, wherein
the imaging device captures the second image in a first frame period, and
the control circuit determines, based on the second image captured in the first frame period, whether to capture an image by the normal exposure or capture an image by the multiple exposure in a second frame period following the first frame period.
2. The camera system according to claim 1 , further comprising
an image processor, wherein
in a case where the image processor cannot detect a first object in the second image captured in the first frame period, the control circuit determines to capture an image by the normal exposure in the second frame period.
3. The camera system according to claim 1 , further comprising
an image processor, wherein
in a case where the image processor detects a first object in the second image captured in the first frame period, the control circuit determines to capture an image by the multiple exposure in the second frame period.
4. The camera system according to claim 1 , wherein
the multiple exposure includes a first exposure and a second exposure different from the first exposure, and
a sensitivity in the first exposure is different from a sensitivity in the second exposure.
5. The camera system according to claim 1 , wherein a sensitivity in a period between adjacent two exposures out of the multiple exposure is greater than zero and less than a sensitivity in each of the adjacent two exposures.
6. The camera system according to claim 1 , further comprising
an image processor that calculates, based on the second image, at least a direction of movement, a velocity, or an acceleration of a first object captured by the imaging device.
7. A camera system comprising:
an imaging device that captures a first image by a normal exposure including only one exposure and that captures a second image by a multiple exposure including a plurality of exposures; and
a control circuit, wherein
the imaging device captures the first image in a first frame period, and
the control circuit determines, based on the first image captured in the first frame period, whether to capture an image by the normal exposure or capture an image by the multiple exposure in a second frame period following the first frame period.
8. The camera system according to claim 7 , further comprising
an image processor, wherein
in a case where the image processor cannot detect a first object in the first image captured in the first frame period, the control circuit determines to capture an image by the normal exposure in the second frame period.
9. The camera system according to claim 7 , further comprising
an image processor, wherein
in a case where the image processor detect a first object in the first image captured in the first frame period, the control circuit determines to capture an image by the multiple exposure in the second frame period.
10. The camera system according to claim 7 , wherein
the multiple exposure includes a first exposure and a second exposure different from the first exposure, and
a sensitivity in the first exposure is different from a sensitivity in the second exposure.
11. The camera system according to claim 7 , wherein a sensitivity in a period between adjacent two exposures out of the multiple exposure is greater than zero and less than a sensitivity in each of the adjacent two exposures.
12. The camera system according to claim 7 , further comprising
an image processor that calculates, based on the second image, at least a direction of movement, a velocity, or an acceleration of a first object captured by the imaging device.
13. A camera system comprising:
an imaging device that captures a first image by a normal exposure including only one exposure and that captures a second image by a multiple exposure including a plurality of exposures; and
a control circuit, wherein
the control circuit causes the imaging device
to capture the first image in a frame period,
to capture the second image in each of one or more frame periods following the frame period, and
to capture the first image in a frame period following the one or more frame periods.
14. The camera system according to claim 13 , wherein
the multiple exposure includes a first exposure and a second exposure different from the first exposure, and
a sensitivity in the first exposure is different from a sensitivity in the second exposure.
15. The camera system according to claim 13 , wherein a sensitivity in a period between adjacent two exposures out of the multiple exposure is greater than zero and less than a sensitivity in each of the adjacent two exposures.
16. The camera system according to claim 13 , further comprising
an image processor that calculates, based on the second image, at least a direction of movement, a velocity, or an acceleration of a first object captured by the imaging device.
