Movable object periphery monitoring system and method for controlling data transmission in the same
First Claim
1. A movable object periphery monitoring system comprising:
- a transmission device including a transmitter and a receiver configured to transmit an image signal of an image of a periphery of a movable object from an imaging device to a display device near a driver of the movable object, using the transmitter and the receiver through a first transmission path and a second transmission path, whereinthe transmitter is configured to add error detection information to each unit data item of an indication screen of the display device to generate an image signal and transmit the image signal,the receiver is configured to detect an error in the first transmission path using the error detection information; and
the receiver is further configured to, when continuously detecting an error in a plurality of transmitted unit data items, determine that malfunction occurs in a transmission state of the first transmission path and select an image signal transmitted through the second transmission path instead of an image signal transmitted through the first transmission path.

Abstract
A transmission device includes a transmitter and a receiver and transmits an image signal of an image of a periphery of a movable object from an imaging device to a display device near a driver of the movable object. The transmitter transmits an image signal to the receiver through a first transmission path and a second transmission path. The transmitter adds error detection information to each unit data item of a screen of the display device to generate an image signal. The receiver detects an error in the first transmission path using the error detection information. When continuously detecting an error in multiple transmitted unit data items, the receiver determines that malfunction occurs in a transmission state of the first transmission path and selects an image signal transmitted through the second transmission path instead of an image signal transmitted through the first transmission path.
