Abstract

A vehicular driver assist system suitable for use in a vehicle includes a video processor module receiving and processing image data provided by a plurality of video sensors and sensor data provided by a plurality of non-video sensors. The video processor module communicates with other vehicle systems via a vehicle bus. The received image data may be processed at the video processor module to generate a synthesized image, which may be output from the video processor module for display by a single display screen of a display device that is viewable by a driver of the vehicle. An object external to the vehicle may be detected, at least in part, via processing of image data at the video processor module. Responsive at least in part to processing of image data and sensor data at the video processor module, a driver assistance system of the vehicle is controlled.
