Abstract
A monocular camera system for a vehicle includes a front mono camera, a side mono camera, and one or more controllers in electronic communication with the front mono camera and the side mono camera. The one or more controllers execute instructions to determine an ideal lagged distance the vehicle travels between a current time step and a previous time step as two asynchronous camera frames are captured by the front mono camera and the side mono camera, determine a number of delayed frames captured by either the front mono camera or the side mono camera between the current time step and the previous time step based on the ideal lagged distance. The controllers determine a direction of travel of the vehicle that indicates which mono camera is selected to provide a previous camera frame captured at the previous time step.
