CA 2691138

The present application adds detection capabilities to perceive the presence and/or measure the velocity of obstacles such as automobiles, trucks, pedestrian and other users, to vehicle lighting modules as headlamp, tail lamps, centre high mount stop lamp (CHMSL) and interior lighting to name a few, for driver assistance applications like adaptive cruise control, blind spot and pre-crash assist. For example, a Light Emitting Diode (LED) has the capability to be used as lighting source for illumination as a first function and also be pulsed or modulated as a source for the detection sub-system as a second function.

La présente invention porte sur des moyens de détection de la présence d'obstacle et/ou de mesure de la vitesse d'obstacles tels qu'automobiles, camions, piétons et autres utilisateurs, combinés à des modules d'éclairage de véhicules tels que feux avant, feux arrière, feu de freinage central surélevé (CHMSL) et éclairage intérieur pour en citer quelque uns, pour des applications d'assistance au conducteur telles que régulation de vitesse adaptative, surveillance d'angle mort et prévention des collisions. À titre d'exemple, une diode électroluminescente (DEL) peut être utilisée comme source lumineuse d'éclairage en tant que première fonction, et peut également être pulsée ou modulée pour servir de source pour le sous-système de détection en tant que seconde fonction.
