HELLA makes ground-breaking night vision development
Share:

OE manufacturer and systems supplier, HELLA is already at the forefront of automotive safety technology with its involvement in advance driver assistance systems and is cementing it reputation in this sector with more new developments. Working alongside independent associated business Brighter AI, HELLA has now produced a cloud-based application that has allowed the development of new safety and comfort-related functions.


The solution has already been implemented in the security sector, but can be adapted for automotive applications and uses infrared night photography to create realistic daylight images. In practical terms this will enable the driver to look into the rearview mirror at night and the view reflected will appear to them as if they were driving in daylight.

Greater illumination of the area around them will significantly increase driver safety as they will be able to see more of the road behind, leading to less accidents and potential fatalities. Currently in its pilot stages, HELLA is confident that the realistic colour image technology will pave the way for further uses in the industry such as optimising camera-based driver assistance systems, as well as applications in aviation and aerospace.
