Nikon has developed an innovative in-vehicle camera system in conjunction with Mitsubishi Fuso Truck and Bus Corporation (MFTBC). The camera features an optical lens that captures both telephoto and wide-angle imagery simultaneously, enabling users to see far-away objects while checking their peripheral vision at the same time. The camera will be exhibited for the first time at the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in Las Vegas, January 7-10, 2025.
The optical axes of the far-away and periphery shots are the same, which prevents the parallax effect. When used as an in-vehicle camera, AI systems can perform image recognition to collect road information that requires tracking, such as road signs or other vehicles in the distance. The dual-camera system reduces the issue of losing track of objects or seeing a double image.
