Patent attributes
A vision system of a vehicle includes a camera having a field of view exterior and forward of the vehicle. A control includes an image processor that is operable to process image data captured by the camera. The control is operable to determine lane markers ahead of the vehicle and in a path of travel of the vehicle, and predicts lane markers beyond the sensing range of the camera. Responsive to prediction of lane markers ahead of the vehicle that are outside and beyond the first sensing range of the camera, the control controls a matrix of light emitting diodes to enhance illumination at a target region that encompasses where lane markers are predicted to be. Responsive to processing of captured image data with enhanced illumination at the target region, the control is operable to determine the presence of an object at the target region.
