Abstract

See full text

A vehicular driver monitoring system includes a camera disposed at a mirror head of an interior rearview mirror assembly of a vehicle and viewing within an interior cabin of the vehicle. The camera includes a lens and an image sensor. The camera is operable to capture color image data. Electronic circuitry of an electronic control unit (ECU) includes an image processor for processing color image data captured by the camera. With a driver of the vehicle sitting in a driver seat of the vehicle, light reflected off the eyes of the driver impinges at the lens of the camera. The vehicular driver monitoring system, via processing at the ECU of color image data captured by the camera, determines a deficiency in captured color image data arising from light impinging at the lens.
