Claim One:
1. An automatic vehicle equipment control system comprising: at least one imager configured to acquire a continuous sequence of high dynamic range single frame images, and said at least one imager comprising a pixel array; a color spectral filter array in optical communication with said at least one imager, said color spectral filter array comprising a plurality of color filters, at least a portion of which are different colors, and each said pixel being in optical communication with substantially one said spectral color filter; a lens in optical communication with said at least one imager and said color spectral filter array; and a processor in communication with said at least one imager, said processor being configured to detect an alternating current (AC) light source in said continuous sequence of high dynamic range single frame images, wherein said at least one imager is configured to have a sampling image repetition period that is longer than that of a flicker cycle period of said AC light source.
