Abstract

Cameras in general are exteroceptive sensors and provide visual information about the local environment. For automotive safety applications, image data is processed to identify critical situations and avoid traffic accidents. Plenoptic cameras which are capable of recording both, angular and spatial information of light, have found increasing interest in optical 3D measurement techniques in recent years. Major advantages are multiple perspective views of captured scene and post focus capability. Therefore, the depth of the scene can be estimated similar to stereo camera.
