Patent attributes
A vehicular vision system includes a camera disposed at a vehicle and having a field of view exterior of the vehicle, an infrared light emitting diode disposed at the vehicle and operable to illuminate a region at least partially within the field of view of the camera, and a control having an image processor that processes image data captured by the camera. The camera captures frames of image data at a first rate, and the infrared light emitting diode is pulsed at a second rate, with the first rate being faster than and a multiple of the second rate. The control processes captured frames of image data when the region is illuminated for a first driving assist function of the vehicle and processes captured frames of image data when the region is not illuminated for a second driving assist function.
