This describes a system for a vehicle's camera that can dynamically change its vertical viewing area. A computer uses information from another sensor, such as an inertial measurement unit (IMU) that detects the road's incline, to decide which parts of the camera's image sensor to activate. This allows the camera to focus its view up or down based on the vehicle's movement or the road's slope.
Why it matters: Filed before widespread adoption of advanced vehicle sensor fusion for real-time environmental awareness. The claims address optimizing camera data acquisition, which is now more critical for efficient ADAS processing.
