PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a vehicular imaging system making it possible to reduce a load of processing an image that shows the vicinity of a vehicle and that is taken by a camera.SOLUTION: A vehicular imaging system 100 includes a forward-looking camera 1 that images a scene in front of a vehicle, a leftward-looking camera 2 that images a scene on a left side of the vehicle, a rightward-looking camera 3 that images a scene on a right side of the vehicle, a rearward-looking camera 4 that images a scene behind the vehicle, and a signal processing unit 20 that performs signal processing on each of images in respective directions taken by the respective cameras 1 to 4 and outputs a predetermined signal. The cameras 1 to 4 have their imaging ranges in respective imaging directions. The signal processing unit 20 performs signal processing on each of images acquired in restrictive visual areas that are restricted to predetermined ranges within the imaging ranges.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 5
【課題】カメラで撮像した車両周辺の画像の処理負荷を低減できる車両用撮像装置を提供する。【解決手段】車両用撮像装置100は、車両の前方を撮像する前方カメラ1と、車両の左側方を撮像する左側方カメラ2と、車両の右側方を撮像する右側方カメラ3と、車両の後方を撮像する後方カメラ4と、カメラ1〜4が撮像した各方向の画像に対して信号処理を行い、所定の信号を出力する信号処理部20とを備えている。カメラ1〜4は、撮像方向ごとに撮像範囲を有し、信号処理部20は、前記撮像範囲のうち所定範囲に限定された限定視野領域で取得された各画像に対して、信号処理を行う。【選択図】図5
