Abstract

In one embodiment, a system configures an image signal processor (ISP) of an autonomous driving vehicle (ADV) with a first set of ISP configuration parameters, where the ISP is used to process raw image data of an image sensor of the ADV based on the first set of ISP configuration parameters. The system determines whether one or more criteria is satisfied, where the one or more criteria corresponds to an expected change in a characteristic of ambient light being perceived by the image sensor of the ADV. In response to determining that the one or more criteria is satisfied, the system configures the ISP of the ADV with a second set of ISP configuration parameters, where the ISP is used to apply an image processing algorithm to raw image data based on the second set of ISP configuration parameters to generate an image.
