Abstract:
A vehicular vision and alert system includes a camera disposed at a windshield of a vehicle so as to have a field of view forward of the vehicle as the vehicle travels along a traffic lane of a road. Other vehicles traveling along another traffic lane of multiple traffic lanes of the road travel in a direction opposite to the direction of travel of the vehicle as the vehicle travels along its traffic lane. With the camera disposed at the vehicle, the system determines a traffic pattern of the other vehicles traveling along the other traffic lane. Responsive at least in part to the determined traffic pattern of the other vehicles traveling along the other traffic lane, the system transmits a traffic alert communication to a remote system, and the traffic alert communication is indicative of the determined traffic pattern of the other vehicles traveling along the other traffic lane.

Claim (Index 21):
A vehicular vision and alert system, said vehicular vision and alert system comprising:\n a camera configured to be disposed at a windshield of a vehicle equipped with said vehicular vision and alert system so as to have a field of view forward of the equipped vehicle as the equipped vehicle travels along a traffic lane of a road, wherein the field of view encompasses multiple traffic lanes of the road along which the equipped vehicle is traveling; wherein other vehicles traveling along another traffic lane of the multiple traffic lanes are traveling in a direction opposite to the direction of travel of the equipped vehicle as the equipped vehicle travels along its traffic lane of the road; wherein, when the equipped vehicle is traveling along a freeway or divided highway, the other traffic lane is separate from the traffic lane along which the equipped vehicle is traveling; an image processor operable to process image data captured by said camera; wherein, with said camera disposed at the equipped vehicle, and via processing by said image processor of image data captured by said camera, said vehicular vision and alert system determines a traffic pattern of the other vehicles traveling along the other traffic lane; wherein, responsive at least in part to the determined traffic pattern of the other vehicles traveling along the other traffic lane, said vehicular vision and alert system transmits a traffic alert communication to a remote system, and wherein the traffic alert communication is indicative of the determined traffic pattern of the other vehicles traveling along the other traffic lane; wherein the traffic alert communication includes location information pertaining to the current geographical location of the equipped vehicle; and wherein, when the equipped vehicle is traveling along a freeway or divided highway, the remote system transmits the traffic alert communication to other vehicles that are about to enter the freeway or divided highway and about to be traveling along the other traffic lane where the traffic pattern of other vehicles is determined.
