Night Driving System for Vehicles

Written by motorcycleadvisor on September 27th, 2011

A new night driving a vehicle system, primarily based on Opals’ CompactEye thermal engine, has been developed to present improved driver vision in total darkness, bad weather, fog, smoke, dust, and so forth. This allows autos to move in conditions challenging for others ensuring the required tools and individual can achieve their objectives safely.  

 


This improved night manoeuvreing system is utilises an uncooled thermal imager combined with a 75-degree field of view lens. The CompactEye is a miniature high-performance microbolometric thermal imaging engine, based on a 384×288 pixels 25micron ASi microbolometer sensor providing full frame rates, 50/60Hz of video. This thermal engine has been developed and improved to ensure the it meets the highest of standards and reliability ensuring high quality thermal images for the drivers information. The engine comes equipped with potent proprietary algorithms, entirely field tried and proven to be helpful in poor visibility conditions. It offers a variety of outputs   (CCIR or RS170) and electronic (optionally available) video outputs. The CompactEye is tuned to long-wave infrared with sensitivity of less than 0.050°C with a F1 lens. The entire system is enclosed in a Meron housing and integrated with hard carbon coated optics. The system has an anti-blooming mechanism to avert dazzle and make sure outstanding eyesight at all instances the module can simply be built-in into car designs. Video~ information can be taken from the camera and interfaced into a appropriate display. Utilising this system will help improve the safety of the driver and pedestrians and reduces the risk of accidents in difficult condidions. 

 
Straightforward to implement and utilise the system gives a fast option to inadequate visibility circumstances for all land vehicles when pace and time is important
