Gating camera, sensing system for vehicle, and lighting unit for vehicle

A gated camera configured to divide a depth direction into a plurality of ranges and generate a plurality of slice images corresponding to the plurality of ranges, the gated camera comprising:

• an illumination device configured to radiate probe light;
• an image sensor including a plurality of pixels;
• a controller configured to control a light emission timing of the illumination device and an exposure timing of the image sensor;
• and
• an image processing device configured to generate the slice images based on a sensor image transmitted from the image sensor,
• wherein a resolution of the sensor image transmitted from the image sensor to the image processing device is lower as correspondingthe range of the plurality of ranges is closer to the gated camera.

A gated camera configured to divide a depth direction into a plurality of ranges and generate a plurality of slice images corresponding to the plurality of ranges, the gated camera comprising:

• an illumination device configured to radiate probe light;
• an image sensor including a plurality of pixels;
• and
• a controller configured to control a light emission timing of the illumination device and an exposure timing of the image sensor,
• wherein the plurality of pixels of the image sensor are classified into a plurality of pixel groups, and
• wherein the controller exposes the plurality of pixel groups at different timings with respect to one light emission of the illumination device.
