Abstract

Systems and methods use cameras to provide autonomous navigation features. In one implementation, a system includes at least one image capture device configured to acquire a plurality of images of a traffic light located in a region above the vehicle, outside of a sightline of a typical driver location in the vehicle. The system further includes a data interface, and at least one processing device. The at least one processing device may be configured to receive the plurality of images via the data interface, determine a status of the traffic light based on analysis of at least a first image from among the plurality of images, determine a change in status of the traffic light based on at least a second image from among the plurality of images, and cause a system response based on the determination of the change in status.
