Abstract

A display system is provided for a vehicle equipped with a camera for supplying streamed video images of a scene rearward of the vehicle. The display system includes an image processing unit for receiving the streamed video images and processing the streamed video images, and a display for displaying the processed streamed video images. To perform processing of the streamed video images, the image processing unit is configured to: detect amplitude-modulated light sources in the streamed video images, classify the detected amplitude-modulated light sources into one of several possible classifications, select the streamed video images in which an amplitude-modulated light source is detected that flickers based upon the classification of the amplitude-modulated light source, and modify the selected streamed video images to correct for flicker of any amplitude-modulated light sources in the selected streamed video images.
