Abstract
A vehicular vision system includes a camera having a field of view interior of a vehicle equipped with the vehicular vision system, a plurality of infrared light emitters operable to illuminate a region at least partially within the field of view of the camera, and an electronic control unit having an image processor that processes image data captured by the camera. The camera captures frames of image data at a first rate, and infrared light emitters of the plurality of infrared light emitters are pulsed at a second rate. The first rate is different than the second rate. For a driving assist function of the vehicle, capture of frames of image data by the camera at the first rate is synchronized with pulsing of the infrared light emitters of the plurality of infrared light emitters at the second rate.
