Some of the fundamental attributes that contribute to image quality for automotive applications are addressed in this standard. Existing metrics and other information relating to these attributes are also identified, as well as a standardized suite of objective test methods for measuring automotive camera image quality. In addition, baseline test methods and relevant information about tools available to facilitate standards-based communication, as well as a comparison of performance among vehicle manufacturers, system integrators, and component vendors regarding automotive image quality, are outlined.

This standard addresses the fundamental attributes that contribute to image quality (IQ) for automotive applications, as well as identifies existing metrics and other useful information relating to these attributes. It defines a standardized suite of objective and subjective test methods for measuring automotive camera IQ attributes, and it specifies quantities, tools, and test methods to facilitate standards-based communication and comparison among original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) and Tier 1 system integrators and component vendors regarding automotive IQ.

This standard specifies quantities, methods, and metrics for measuring and testing automotive IQ and creates cross-industry common reference points.
