  • Method for converting an image, driver assistance system and motor vehicle
    Patent number: 9819833
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method for converting (S1) an image (7) by an evaluation unit (4) of a motor vehicle (1), wherein the image (7) is captured from an environmental region (6) of a motor vehicle (1) by a camera (3) of the motor vehicle (1), and the image (7) includes an alpha channel (12) and at least one color channel in a predetermined color model, and the image (7) is converted into an alpha channel (12) and a Y channel (9) of a YUV color model and a U channel (10) of the YUV color model and a V channel (11) of the YUV color model, wherein in converting the image (7), the alpha channel (12) and the Y channel (9) and the U channel (10) and the V channel (11) are embedded in a converted image (8) of the image (7).
