Abstract
A system and method for insight-triggered opportunistic imaging in a vehicle are provided. In one embodiment, a plurality of images are captured opportunistically using an image capture device in a vehicle. A compressive sensing sampling technique is used to store a subset of image pixels of at least some of the plurality of images. A retention filter is applied to the plurality of images to select a subset of the plurality of images to retain based on a signal from a sensor in the vehicle. The retained image information can be sent to an entity external to the vehicle for processing.
