Description

車用影像監視系統 Vehicle image monitoring system

本發明是有關一種監視系統,特別是有關一種車用影像監視系統。 The present invention relates to a surveillance system, and more particularly to a vehicle image surveillance system.

在現今社會中,汽車為日常生活中不可或缺的交通工具。由於科技的進步,汽車上的電子裝置不斷推陳出新,使得駕駛人在駕駛汽車時更為容易,且更為安全。舉例來說,倒車雷達能偵測汽車後保險桿與待撞物的距離,當後保險桿與待撞物的距離過近時,可發出提示聲響警告駕駛人。如此一來,可彌補駕駛人倒車時經由後視鏡察看的視覺死角。 In today's society, cars are indispensable means of transportation in daily life. Thanks to advances in technology, electronic devices on the car continue to evolve, making it easier and safer for drivers to drive. For example, the reversing radar can detect the distance between the rear bumper of the car and the object to be hit. When the distance between the rear bumper and the object to be hit is too close, a warning sound can be issued to warn the driver. In this way, it can compensate for the visual dead angle of the driver through the rearview mirror when reversing.

在駕駛汽車時,若駕駛要察看汽車後方的路況,大多只能仰賴汽車左右兩外側的後視鏡,或前側擋風玻璃下方的後視鏡。然而,不論後視鏡的位置為何,後視鏡反射的影像均會受車體設計的影響而存有視覺死角區。例如前側擋風玻璃下方的後視鏡可能會被車頂、座椅、乘客或堆放於後側擋風玻璃內側的物品遮擋,對於汽車行駛時的安全性大打折扣。 When driving a car, if driving to see the road conditions behind the car, most of them can only rely on the rear side mirrors on the left and right sides of the car, or the rear view mirror under the front windshield. However, regardless of the position of the rear view mirror, the image reflected by the rear view mirror is affected by the design of the vehicle body and has a visual dead zone. For example, the rear view mirror under the front side windshield may be blocked by the roof, the seat, the passenger or the items stacked on the inside of the rear side windshield, which greatly reduces the safety of the car when driving.

許多車禍事件便是起因於駕駛無法掌握視覺死角的狀況所導致。因此,如何增加汽車駕駛的可視範圍,減少視覺死角,便是現今汽車設計的主要考量之一。 Many car accidents are caused by conditions in which driving cannot grasp the visual dead angle. Therefore, how to increase the visual range of car driving and reduce the visual dead angle is one of the main considerations of today's car design.

在以下敘述中,將詳細說明攝影機110a、110b、110c在車頂210之外表面212的設置方式。 In the following description, the manner in which the cameras 110a, 110b, 110c are disposed on the outer surface 212 of the roof 210 will be described in detail.

第3圖繪示第1圖之車用影像監視系統100之可視範圍R的示意圖。如圖所示,攝影機110a、110b、110c均具有可視角α。兩相鄰之攝影機110a、110b的可視角α至少部分重疊,且兩相鄰之攝影機110b、110c的可視角α也至少部分重疊。此外,兩相鄰之攝影機110a、110b的軸線具有第一夾角θ,且兩相鄰之攝影機110b、110c的軸線也具有第一夾角θ。攝影機110a、110b、110c之可視角α形成一可視範圍R,且可視範圍R之兩邊緣的連線L1、L2具有第二夾角θ’。在本實施方式中,第二夾角θ’介於20至160度之間。 FIG. 3 is a schematic diagram showing the visible range R of the vehicle image monitoring system 100 of FIG. 1. As shown, the cameras 110a, 110b, 110c each have a viewable angle a. The view angles a of the two adjacent cameras 110a, 110b at least partially overlap, and the view angles a of the two adjacent cameras 110b, 110c also at least partially overlap. Furthermore, the axes of the two adjacent cameras 110a, 110b have a first angle θ and the axes of the two adjacent cameras 110b, 110c also have a first angle θ. The view angle α of the cameras 110a, 110b, 110c forms a visible range R, and the lines L1, L2 of the two edges of the visible range R have a second angle θ'. In the present embodiment, the second included angle θ' is between 20 and 160 degrees.

當攝影機110a、110b、110c背對於鏡頭的一端相距均趨近零時,第二夾角θ’會大致等於α+2 θ。當攝影機 110a、110b、110c背對於鏡頭的一端均相距一距離時,第二夾角θ’會大於α+2 θ。也就是說,當攝影機的數量為自然數N時,且第一夾角為θ,可視角為α,則第二夾角θ’大於或等於α+(N-1)x θ。 When the distances of the cameras 110a, 110b, 110c facing away from the lens are all close to zero, the second angle θ' will be approximately equal to α + 2 θ. When the camera When 110a, 110b, 110c are at a distance from one end of the lens, the second angle θ' is greater than α + 2 θ. That is, when the number of cameras is a natural number N, and the first angle is θ, and the angle of view is α, the second angle θ' is greater than or equal to α + (N - 1) x θ.

同時參閱第2圖與第3圖,具體而言,車用影像監視系統100的攝影機110a、110b、110c設置於車頂210的外表面212上,由於攝影機110a、110b、110c位在車輛200最高的位置,因此在取得後視影像時不易產生視覺死角,且較不易受外力碰撞而受損。此外,因兩相鄰之攝影機110a、110b的可視角α部分重疊,且兩相鄰之攝影機110b、110c的可視角α部分重疊,因此可藉由影像接合模組120來接合攝影機110a、110b、110c取得的後視影像,使後視影像形成無接縫的接合影像。另外,微型投影機130設置於車頂210的內表面214上,不會佔據空間,並可將接合影像142投射至車輛200之前側擋風玻璃220的上緣。 Referring to FIGS. 2 and 3, in particular, the cameras 110a, 110b, 110c of the vehicle image monitoring system 100 are disposed on the outer surface 212 of the roof 210, since the cameras 110a, 110b, 110c are located at the highest position of the vehicle 200. Therefore, it is not easy to produce a visual dead angle when obtaining a rear view image, and is less susceptible to damage by external force collision. In addition, since the view angles α of the two adjacent cameras 110a and 110b partially overlap, and the view angles α of the two adjacent cameras 110b and 110c partially overlap, the cameras 110a and 110b can be joined by the image joint module 120. The rear view image obtained by 110c forms a seamless image of the rear view image. In addition, the pico projector 130 is disposed on the inner surface 214 of the roof 210 without occupying a space, and can project the joint image 142 to the upper edge of the front side windshield 220 of the vehicle 200.

此車用影像監視系統100的可視範圍大,後視影像為無接縫的接合影像142,因此對於車輛200的安全性可大幅提升。此外,車用影像監視系統100不需顯示螢幕,且習知位於車室內的後視鏡可以省略。 The vehicle image monitoring system 100 has a large visual range, and the rear view image is a seamless joint image 142, so the safety of the vehicle 200 can be greatly improved. In addition, the vehicle image monitoring system 100 does not need to display a screen, and the rearview mirror that is conventionally located in the vehicle compartment can be omitted.

應瞭解到,已敘述過的元件與元件連接關係將不在重複贅述,在以下敘述中,僅說明車用影像監視系統還可具有的其它元件,合先敘明。 It should be understood that the components and component connections described above will not be repeated, and in the following description, only other components that can be possessed by the vehicle image monitoring system will be described.

第4圖繪示根據本發明一實施方式之車用影像監視系統100’組裝於車輛200的上視圖。第5圖繪示第4圖之車輛200內部的立體圖。同時參閱第4圖與第5圖,車用影 像監視系統100’包含複數個攝影機110a、110b、110c、影像接合模組120與顯像單元。與第1圖、第2圖實施方式不同的地方在於:車用影像監視系統100’還可包含轉動裝置150與控制單元160。其中,轉動裝置150位於攝影機110a、110b、110c與車輛200之車頂210之間。控制單元160電性連接轉動裝置150,當使用者按壓控制單元160的左鍵或右鍵時,轉動裝置150可於車頂210順時針或逆時針旋轉。如此一來,使用者可藉由控制單元160控制攝影機110a、110b、110c取得不同角度之後視影像。 Fig. 4 is a top plan view showing the vehicle image monitoring system 100' assembled to the vehicle 200 according to an embodiment of the present invention.

Among them, the rotating device 150 is located between the cameras 110a, 110b, 110c and the roof 210 of the vehicle 200. The control unit 160 is electrically connected to the rotating device 150. When the user presses the left or right button of the control unit 160, the rotating device 150 can rotate clockwise or counterclockwise on the roof 210. In this way, the user can control the cameras 110a, 110b, and 110c to obtain different angles of the rear view image by the control unit 160.

在其他實施方式中,可設置三組轉動裝置150分別於攝影機110a、110b、110c與車頂210之間,每個轉動裝置150可單獨轉動對應的攝影機,依照設計者需求而定。 In other embodiments, three sets of rotating devices 150 may be disposed between the cameras 110a, 110b, 110c and the roof 210, and each of the rotating devices 150 may individually rotate the corresponding camera according to the designer's needs.
