Claim 0:
1. An image processing system having on-the-fly calibration, comprising:
a light source configured to emit light;
a sensor array comprising a plurality of pixels for receiving incoming signals including reflected emitted light, wherein for each of the plurality of pixels, the sensor array includes at least one storage unit for storing collected received incoming signals; and
a processor configured to determine an obstruction distance between the light source and an exterior obstruction, to determine a distance measurement for at least one of pixel in a subset of pixels of the plurality of pixels, and to use the obstruction distance to calibrate the image processing system,
wherein a first subset of the at least one storage unit corresponds to the subset of pixels, and wherein the first subset of the at least one storage unit stores collected signals comprising emitted light reflected off the exterior obstruction.
