Claim:
1. An integrated sensor apparatus of a vehicle, comprising: a light emitter configured to emit a light having an area of a predetermined range to a first region of a windshield; a light receiver configured to receive the light emitted by the light emitter and reflected from the first region of the windshield and an external light incident from the exterior to the windshield; a light guider configured to be attached to the windshield to guide the light emitted by the light emitter to be reflected from the first region of the windshield and arrive at the light receiver; and an image sensor configured to sense a plurality of image patterns from the light reflected by the first region of the windshield and the external light incident into the windshield from the exterior, wherein the image sensor includes a first sensing region configured to sense the image pattern from the light reflected by the first region of the windshield and a second sensing region configured to sense amount of the external light from the external light incident into the windshield from the exterior, and wherein the first sensing region is a region that corresponds to a substantially middle region of the windshield at which the light emitted by the light emitter arrives, among the sensing regions of the image sensor, and the second sensing region is regions that correspond to left and right side regions of the windshield where the light emitted by the light emitter does not arrive.
