Abstract
A vehicular vision system includes an interior-viewing camera disposed in a vehicle and viewing a driver of the vehicle, and a forward-viewing camera disposed at a windshield of the vehicle and viewing at least forward of the vehicle. Image data captured by the interior-viewing camera is transferred from the interior-viewing camera to the ECU and is processed at the ECU. Image data captured by the forward-viewing camera is transferred from the forward-viewing camera to the ECU and is processed at the ECU. Responsive to image processing of image data captured by the interior-viewing camera, at least one selected from the group consisting of (i) position of the driver's head is determined and (ii) direction that the driver's eyes are viewing is determined. Image data captured by the forward-viewing camera is processed for a plurality of driver assistant systems of the vehicle.
