Abstract: A multi-channel glare-suppression device of a digital image system first acquires a spatial image, and at least one first lens set then collects light from the spatial image and generates an optical image. The optical image then passes through or is reflected by an optical modulation module to generate a modulated image. At least one second lens set further scales the modulated image and focuses the modulated image to generate a scaled image on a photo-sensing module for the photo-sensing module to convert the scaled image into an image signal. A processing module senses the photo-sensing module. When detecting a current higher than a threshold generated in a region of the photo-sensing module, the processing module then generates the control signal to modulate a region of the modulated image so as to attenuate the glare in the region of the modulated image.

Abstract: A multi channel and wide-angle observation system includes at least two lens modules, at least two polarization units, at least two polarization control units, at least two transmittance control units and a spectroscope to form a multiple structure, which utilizes the light polarization characteristics to control the light propagation, to control switching different channel to form an optical image in accordance with the timing control unit, and then to synthesize the images by an image processing unit. Since each channel of the system has different visual angles for capturing images, a wide-angle image can be got via the image synthesis and a light transmittance adjustment cab be processed via the transmission rate control module, so as to adjust the light intensity from different incident directions to balance the vision lightness of the wide-angle image.

Abstract: A passenger detector includes an image taker, an image processor and a storage unit. The image taker is used for taking an image of a passenger sitting on a seat. The image processor is connected to the image taker. The image processor is used to learn and identify features of the image and possibilities of states of the passenger and integrate the possibilities to select the most likely state of the passenger. The storage unit is connected to the image processor. The storage unit is used to store image data before and after taking the image.

Abstract: The present invention provides an apparatus for fetching optical images. Images from multiple channels are obtained. A device is used to automatically switch the images. The switching is based on time-sharing multiplexing (TSM). Thus, the images are formed on another device. The images are then integrated and displayed to be used in an optical vehicle safety assistant system.
