ACTIVE SUSPENSION SYSTEM

Active suspension is a type of automotive suspension that controls

the vertical movement of the wheels relative to the chassis or
vehicle body with an onboard system,

• Passive suspension

• Quality of ride improves.

▪ These technologies allow car manufacturers to achieve a greater degree
of ride quality and car handling by keeping the tires perpendicular to the
road in corners, allowing better traction and control.

▪ So the on board controller receives the data from the camera and
processes it and for processing the data it uses different image
processing techniques .Like Edge Detection.

▪ An onboard computer detects body movement from sensors throughout

the vehicle and, using that data, controls the action of the active and
semi-active suspensions.

There is a front camera and processor which operates the suspension system.
IMAGE PROCESSING
Need of Image Processing?
• The image must be available to be viewed on one or
more outputs.

• We can also make some conclusion depending

upon the type of image, some actions can be
performed based on the image

• For example : Active Suspension system

 What is an image?
• We can think of an image as a function, f, from R2 to R:
– f( x, y ) gives the intensity at position ( x, y )
– Realistically, we expect the image only to be defined over a
rectangle, with a finite range:
• f: [a,b]x[c,d] → [0,1]

• A color image is just three functions pasted together. We

can write this as a “vector-valued” function:
 r ( x, y ) 
f ( x, y ) =  g ( x, y ) 
 

 b ( x, y ) 

 What is a digital image?
• We usually operate on digital (discrete) images:
– Sample the 2D space on a regular grid
– Quantize each sample (round to nearest integer)
• If our samples are D apart, we can write this as:
f[i ,j] = Quantize{ f(i D, j D) }
• The image can now be represented as a matrix of integer values
 Image Formation

f(x,y) = reflectance(x,y) * illumination(x,y)

Reflectance in [0,1], illumination in [0,inf]
Image transformation.

Consider this equation

G(x,y) = T{ f(x,y) }
In this equation,
F(x,y)= input image on which
transformation function has to be
applied.
G(x,y) = the output image or
processed image.
T is the transformation function.
• An image processing operation typically defines a new
image g in terms of an existing image f.
• We can transform either the range of f.

• Or the domain of f:
Image processing mainly include the following steps:
1.Importing the image via image acquisition tools;
2.Analysing and manipulating the image;
3.Output in which result can be altered image or a report which is
based on analyzing that image.
Other Application of Image Processing
• Pattern Recognition
• Colour Processing
• Machine/Robot Vision
• Video Processing
• Medical Field
• Image Sharpening and Restoration
