Toyota have released a new model of a Night-View equipped car, dubbed the ‘Crown Hybrid’. The Night-View system uses a combination of low-light cameras and a database of pre-defined pedestrian shapes. The software then compares the images that the cameras pick up against this database and any time a match is made, a yellow box is drawn around the pedestrian and tracked.
The previous Night-View vehicle from Toyota used an overlayed HUD across the windscreen of the car, which was criticized for obstructing and distracting drivers from paying attention to the road. The new incarnation replaces the cars traditional dashboard with an LCD meter displaying a cameras-eye view of the road - possibly even more of a distraction when playing ‘hunt the pedestrian’ at night.
