  • METHOD FOR TIME SYNCHRONIZATION BETWEEN TWO COMPUTING DEVICES OF A DRIVER ASSISTANCE SYSTEM, DRIVER ASSISTANCE SYSTEM, AND MOTOR VEHICLE
    Publication number: 20200014525
    Abstract: A method for time synchronization between a first electronic computing device of a driver assistance system of a motor vehicle and at least a second electronic computing device of the driver assistance system is disclosed. The method includes: generating, by the first electronic computing device, an interrupt signal and a first timestamp of the first clock; sending the interrupt signal to the second electronic computing device; generating, by the second electronic computing device, a second timestamp of the second clock, depending on the received interrupt signal; determining the time difference based on a difference of the two timestamps; and performing time synchronization depending on the determined time difference.

  • Using parallel data lines for GPIO purposes
    Patent number: 10343606
    Abstract: A camera system for a vehicle that includes a camera unit having a serializer and a control unit having a deserializer connected to the serializer is provided. The deserializer includes a plurality of data contacts for parallel data output. One or more of the data contacts are data contact general purpose inputs/outputs (GPIO) pins that communicates with GPIO pins of a data processing unit of the control unit.
