  • Patent number: 10611198
    Abstract: An apparatus for controlling a pressure on at least one tire of a vehicle based on a remaining time of travelling to a destination of the vehicle and/or an expected load of the vehicle on a subsequent trip, includes: a data acquisition module to acquire data, the data being indicative of the remaining time of travelling to the destination and/or the expected load of the vehicle on the subsequent trip. The apparatus further includes a data processing module to determine a time of changing the pressure on the at least one tire based on the acquired data and a control module to issue a control signal to initiate the change of the pressure at the determined time.

  • Patent number: 10614552
    Abstract: An image synthesizer for a vehicle driver assisting system, which includes a first camera to capture a first image from a first scene and a second camera to capture a second image from a second scene, the first and second scenes overlap in an overlapping region, which includes a blending region. The image synthesizer includes: a receiving module to receive the first and second images from the first and second cameras; and a combining module to combine the first and second images in the overlapping region by applying a blending mask. The blending mask is applied to the blending region and provides an interpolation along an interpolation direction between the first and second images depicted on opposite sides of the blending region, which includes a width greater than a minimal width along any path of light received by the first camera or of the second camera from the blending region.

  • Patent number: 10089538
    Abstract: Cameras having wide fields of view are placed at each of the front left, front right, rear left, and rear right corners of a nominally rectangular-shaped vehicle, thereby providing a continuous region of overlapping fields of view completely surrounding the vehicle, and enabling complete 360° stereoscopic vision detection around the vehicle. In an embodiment the regions of overlapping fields of view completely surround the vehicle. The cameras are first individually calibrated, then collectively calibrated considering errors in overlapping viewing areas to develop one or more calibration corrections according to an optimization method that adjusts imaging parameters including homography values for each of the cameras, to reduce the overall error in the 360° surround view image of the continuous region surrounding the vehicle.

  • Patent number: 10055643
    Abstract: When blending individual vehicle-mounted camera images into a coherent composite image of the vehicle surroundings, objects in the respective images are analyzed to determine the presence of a pedestrian. When the individual images are blended to form the composite image, multiple pedestrian shadow views of the pedestrian are replaced with background pixels to erase the pedestrian, and a semi-symbolic graphical representation of the pedestrian is superimposed at the location of the actual pedestrian in the composite image. The graphical representation is proportional to the pedestrian in the composite image and includes features unique to the pedestrian it represents. The composite image with the graphical representation is then presented to a viewer.

  • Patent number: 9990550
    Abstract: When detecting an object of interest, such as a bicyclist passing a truck, two downward looking cameras both capture images of the cyclist and detect the cyclist as a deviation from the flat ground plane. The ground plane is reconstructed using a homography (projection) matrix of each camera and compared. Where the camera images do not agree, the ground is not flat. The cyclist is located as the intersection of the rays extending to either end of the area of disagreement between the images.

  • Publication number: 20180097996
    Abstract: When employing a multi-node computing architecture for commercial articulated vehicles to generate a composite surround view of the vehicle, each processing node is associated with a vehicle segment. Each node has its own processor, memory and sensors. A master-slave relationship exists in the architecture. The segment processors collect, format, manage and package their local information. Communication between nodes is controlled by the master node, which can limit, adjust, subsample and alter the information and information flow from the slave nodes. The slave nodes can be freely recombined, using a pre-established communication standard or a format agreed upon at combination time.

  • Patent number: 9902267
    Abstract: A processing device controls an associated display. The processing device includes an input for receiving electronic signals from an object detector. The object detector detects an object relative to a vehicle. The processing device also includes a means for predicting a position of the vehicle at a future time, a means for generating first signals for causing an image of the vehicle at the predicted position at the future time relative to the object to be displayed on the associated display device, and an output transmitting the first signals to the associated display for causing the image of the vehicle at the predicted position at the future time relative to the object to be displayed on the associated display device.

  • Publication number: 20160300372
    Abstract: A method for graphically indicating an object in a final image includes obtaining a plurality of sub-images including the object from respective image capturing devices at different angles, replacing a portion of a first of the sub-images with a corresponding portion of a second of the sub-images, replacing a portion of the second sub-image with a corresponding portion of the first sub-image, and generating the final image including a graphical representation of the object as a two-dimensional view not aligned with a common virtual viewpoint based on the first and second sub-images including the respective replaced portions.

  • Patent number: 9437055
    Abstract: When calculating an angle of articulation between two portions of an articulated vehicle such as a tractor-trailer combination, a camera-based articulation angle measuring system comprises camera(s) mounted on the tractor and/or trailer that observe their counterpart and/or features on the other portion of the vehicle. The angles or locations of the counterpart features are measured in the image(s) produced by the camera(s). A geometric model is employed to convert the location and/or angular measurements into a corresponding articulation and/or roll angle for the tractor-trailer combination.
