A Surround View Camera Solution for Embedded Systems

Abstract

Automotive surround view camera system is an emerging automotive ADAS (Advanced Driver Assistance System) technology that assists the driver in parking the vehicle safely by allowing him/her to see a top-down view of the 360 degree surroundings of the vehicle. Such a system normally consists of four to six wide-angle (fish-eye lens) cameras mounted around the vehicle, each facing a different direction. From these camera inputs, a composite bird-eye view of the vehicle is synthesized and shown to the driver in real-time during parking. In this paper, we present a surround view camera solution that consists of three key algorithm components: geometric alignment, photometric alignment, and composite view synthesis. Our solution produces a seamlessly stitched bird-eye view of the vehicle from four cameras. It runs real-time on DSP C66x producing an 880x1080 output video at 30 fps.
