Patent attributes
A driving assistance system includes a camera and at least one processor. The camera is disposed on a mounting apparatus that is rotatably coupled to a vehicle and that rotates about a rotation axis that is spaced apart from the camera. The camera is configured to rotate together with the mounting apparatus from a first point to a second point, and to capture an external image of the vehicle at the first point and the second point. The processor is configured to control the camera to capture a first image at the first point and a second image at the second point, detect an object around the vehicle based on the first image and the second image, and determine a distance between the object and the vehicle based on the first image and the second image.
