Die schnelle Entwicklung des autonomen Fahrens erfordert fortschrittliche Sichtsysteme, die in der Lage sind, extreme Lichtverhältnisse zu bewältigen. Hoher Dynamikbereich (HDR)
kameraubuchwepheshe kube yinto ebalulekile yokwenza kube lula ukuhamba ngokuphepha, ikakhulukazi ezimeni ezifana nokukhanya okukhanyayo kokukhanya kwelanga kanye nezinguquko ezisheshayo phakathi kwamathunhu nezinsuku. Le ndatshana ihlola ukuthi izinguquko ze-HDR zishintsha kanjani izinhlelo zokubona zezimoto, zibhekana nezinselelo zobuchwepheshe, futhi zishapinga ikusasa lemoto ezizimele.
Yini i-HDR ebalulekile ezimotweni ezizimele
Izithombe zendabuko zihluleka ukulinganisa ukukhanya nokumnyama ezimeni ezidlula i-100dB dynamic range (DR). Kwamasistimu azimele, le mikhawulo ibeka engcupheni ukuphazamiseka okubalulekile:
• Tunnel transitions: Sudden shifts from darkness to glare can blind cameras for milliseconds, causing object detection delays .
• LED flicker: Traffic signals and vehicle headlights with PWM dimming create strobing effects, misleading AI algorithms .
• Ukubona ebusuku: Izimo zokukhanya okuphansi zidinga ukuthuthukiswa kokuzwela ukuze kutholakale abantu noma izithiyo ngaphandle kokweqisa ukukhanya.
Autonomous HDR cameras must achieve >140dB DR to capture details across extreme contrasts while maintaining real-time performance .
Cutting-Edge HDR Technologies for Autonomous Vehicles
1. Split Pixel & Dual Conversion Gain (DCG)
Sony’s Subpixel-HDR architecture splits pixels into large (low sensitivity) and small (high sensitivity) subpixels, capturing 4 exposure levels simultaneously. This approach eliminates motion blur from multi-frame stitching but faces challenges like crosstalk and 25% light loss .
Improvements: መሻሻል
• LOFIC (Lateral Overflow Integration Capacitor): Ngokuhlanganisa ama-capacitor ukuze agcine izikhala eziphumayo, ama-sensor e-LOFIC afinyelela i-15EV DR ekuthatheni okukodwa. Ehlanganiswe ne-DCG, avumela ukushintsha kokuthola okwenziwayo, kunciphisa izimpawu zokunyakaza.
• Case Study: Xiaopeng’s XNGP system uses LOFIC-enabled cameras to extend tunnel recognition distance by 30 meters .
2. Iziqhamo zeMiphakathi ye-Multi-Exposure
Canon’s industrial-grade sensors divide frames into 736 regions with independent exposures, capturing 60fps video while balancing shadows and highlights. While initially for security, this "pixel-level HDR" could enhance automotive edge detection .
3. AI-Driven Image Signal Processing (ISP)
Deep learning algorithms now refine HDR outputs by:
• Motion compensation: Ukulinganisa amafremu avela ekuthathweni okuphindaphindiwe.
• LED flicker suppression (LFM): Syncing sensor readout with LED PWM cycles .
• Noise reduction: Ukugxila ezindaweni ezibalulekile (isb., uphawu lwezindlela) ngenkathi kuncishiswa umsindo ongeyona.
