Automotive Camera

The rear cameras are designed to significantly enhance vehicle safety, offering a wide range of viewing angles from 60° to 200° to suit various operational needs. Ideally suited for reversing, parking assistance, and automated valet parking systems, these rear cameras provide reliable performance to improve driver awareness and enable ADAS and autonomous driving solutions.

The front cameras help maintain a safe distance from the vehicle ahead by monitoring traffic conditions, offering a wide range of viewing angles from 30° to 140° to suit various operational needs. These cameras are suitable for Advanced Driver Assistance Systems such as Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC), Forward Collision Warning (FCW), Lane Departure Warning (LDW), Lane Change Assist (LCA), Lane Keeping Assistance (LKA), pedestrian detection, etc.

The side cameras enhance situational awareness and blind-spot detection, offering viewing angles from 60° to 140° to meet diverse operational needs. These cameras are essential for Advanced Driver Assistance Systems, including Blind Spot Detection (BSD), Lane Change Assist (LCA), and Side Collision Warning (SCW). By improving visibility in adjacent lanes and detecting vulnerable road users, they help ensure safer lane changes and enhance overall driving safety.

The surround cameras deliver a comprehensive 360° view, significantly enhancing spatial awareness and vehicle safety. With a wide viewing angle range of 180° to 200°, these cameras are essential for Advanced Driver Assistance Systems such as Automated Parking Assist (APA), Surround View Monitoring (SVM), and Low-Speed Maneuvering Assistance. By minimizing blind spots, detecting nearby objects, and improving visibility in complex environments, surround cameras contribute to safer parking, precise navigation, and enhanced overall driving efficiency.

Around View Monitoring (AVM)

The surround cameras deliver a real-time 360° bird’s-eye view around the vehicle through the panoramic view monitor, reducing blind spots and enhancing spatial awareness. As a surround ADAS system, it seamlessly stitches images from multiple cameras, enabling drivers to clearly identify obstacles, pedestrians, and surrounding traffic for safer and more confident maneuvering.

Backup warning system

The backup warning system leverages surround-view cameras to deliver multi-angle views and real-time object detection while reversing. Its backup warning feature helps drivers detect nearby obstacles and pedestrians, improving parking accuracy, reducing collision risks, and ensuring safer maneuvering in tight spaces.

The Driver Monitoring Camera is designed to enhance driving safety with highly sensitive imaging technology. Utilizing a highly sensitive image sensor and invisible 940nm infrared light, it captures clear, high-resolution images in any lighting condition, including bright sunlight up to 120K lux.

The automotive VIO (Visual-Inertial Odometry) camera integrates an Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU) to deliver data on acceleration and angular velocity after using the Kalman filter. This enables effective compensation for vibrations, offering stable image output and more accurate distance measurement. The camera enhances navigation and obstacle avoidance capabilities for autonomous robots and unmanned vehicles, ensuring reliable performance in dynamic real-world scenarios.

Vibration Compensation for Accurate Localization

Rough terrains and uneven surfaces often cause vibrations that degrade the performance of visual SLAM systems. By fusing IMU data with visual inputs, the VIO camera compensates for distortions in real time, enhancing depth estimation accuracy and reducing localization errors. This ensures reliable navigation and obstacle avoidance even under highly dynamic outdoor conditions.

Compact Integration with Onboard Processing

The camera integrates both an IMU and an MCU directly into the module, creating a compact and self-contained system architecture. The built-in MCU runs an Extended Kalman Filter on 6-axis IMU data (accelerometer + gyroscope), offloading processing tasks from the central ECU while still delivering reliable orientation and motion data. This design reduces wiring complexity, saves space, and enhances system reliability, making it ideal for edge AI deployments.

Automotive-Grade Reliability for Harsh Environments

Engineered to meet stringent automotive standards, the VIO Camera is built for long-term stability in outdoor environments. Its robust design withstands continuous vibration, extreme temperatures, direct sunlight, rain, and dust. The durability ensures consistent performance for AMRs, UGVs, and other robotic platforms operating in challenging real-world conditions where reliability cannot be compromised.
