METHOD AND DEVICE FOR CAPTURING IMAGE OF TRAFFIC SIGN
First Claim
1. A method for capturing an image of a traffic sign by an image sensor, comprising:
- capturing, by the image sensor, at least one image including the traffic sign, wherein the image sensor is mounted in a vehicle;
detecting, by a processor, the traffic sign in the at least one image;
in response to detecting the traffic sign, determining, by the processor, at least one direction of the image sensor based on the at least one image and motion of the vehicle; and
adjusting, by the processor, the image sensor to the at least one direction.

Abstract
A method for capturing an image of a traffic sign by an image sensor is disclosed. The method may include capturing, by the image sensor, at least one image including the traffic sign, wherein the image sensor is mounted in a vehicle. The method may include detecting, by a processor, the traffic sign in the at least one image. The method may also include in response to detecting the traffic sign, determining, by the processor, at least one direction of the image sensor based on the at least one image and motion of the vehicle. In addition, the method may include adjusting, by the processor, the image sensor to the at least one direction.
