Where is my head? How camera and head position influences Image Quality KPIs

Different camera locations in a car, combined with various driver head positions, lead to diverse head-camera angles. This aspect is often overlooked during early camera qualification phases. This tutorial delves into crucial Image Quality KPIs and their variations based on head position, empowering specifications defineers to optimize performance. We explore how optics, illumination, and the entire camera system are influenced by the head’s relative position to the camera. Whether you’re making design decisions about camera placement and need insights into typical head-camera angles, or reviewing test reports and unsure if they reflect real-life scenarios, this tutorial provides valuable guidance.
