Abstract

In particular embodiments, a computing system may receive ambient light measurements of a scene. The ambient light measurements may be generated by one or more light sensors of a vehicle. The system may receive an image captured by an optical sensor of the vehicle. The image may include color information associated with an object in a scene. The system may process the image to estimate a color associated with the object based on the ambient light measurements and the color information in the image. The system may determine the object based on the estimated color and may provide instructions to activate a safety feature in response to the determined object.
