Abstract:
A vision system for a vehicle includes a camera having a forward field of view, a control including an image processor that processes image data captured by the camera, and a global positioning system. Presence of a traffic light located ahead of the vehicle is determined at least in part by the global positioning system. At least one of (i) wireless communication is received at the vehicle and includes a communicated traffic light status of the traffic light ahead of the vehicle, and (ii) processing of captured image data determines an imaged traffic light status of the traffic light ahead of the vehicle. Responsive to determination that the vehicle is not properly responding to the traffic light status of the traffic light ahead of and being approached by the vehicle, the control at least one of (i) generates an alert and (ii) applies brakes of the vehicle.

Claim (Index 15):
A vision system for a vehicle, said vision system comprising:\n a camera disposed at a vehicle and having a field of view at least forward of the vehicle; a control comprising an image processor; wherein said image processor is operable to process image data captured by said camera; a global positioning system of the vehicle; wherein presence of a traffic light located ahead of the vehicle is determined at least in part by the global positioning system of the vehicle; wherein said control receives wireless communication that is associated with the traffic light ahead of the vehicle, wherein the wireless communication comprises a communicated traffic light status of the traffic light ahead of the vehicle; wherein the wireless communication is from a vehicle-to-infrastructure communication device associated with the traffic light ahead of the vehicle; wherein said control, responsive to processing image data captured by said camera, determines an imaged traffic light status of the traffic light ahead of the vehicle when in the field of view of said camera; wherein, responsive to determination, via the global positioning system of the vehicle, that the vehicle is approaching the traffic light present ahead of the vehicle, said vision system, responsive to the communicated traffic light status and the determined imaged traffic light status, determines a traffic light status of the traffic light present ahead of the vehicle; and wherein, responsive to determination that the vehicle is not properly responding to the determined traffic light status, said control at least one of (i) generates an alert and (ii) applies brakes of the vehicle.
