VEHICULAR IMAGE PROCESSING APPARATUS
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A vehicular image processing apparatus comprising:
- an image capture portion that cyclically captures a vehicle compartment of a vehicle;
a luminance acquisition section that acquires luminance of a captured image captured by the image capture portion;
a luminance estimation section that performs, based on a chronological change in the luminance, an estimation of a cyclical change in luminance of a captured image that is to be captured subsequently by the image capture portion; and
a capture mode setup section that settles a capture mode of the image capture portion based on a result of the estimation of the cyclical change in luminance of the captured image.

Abstract
There are provided an image capture portion, a luminance acquisition section, a luminance estimation section, and a capture mode setup section. The image capture portion cyclically captures a vehicle compartment. The luminance acquisition section acquires the luminance of a captured image captured by the image capture portion. The luminance estimation section estimates a cyclic change in the luminance of captured images to be captured subsequently. The capture mode setup section settles a capture mode for the image capture portion based on a result of estimating the cyclic change in the luminance of captured images.
