With the advent of active safety technologies in the automotive industry, a need to record and replay the actual on-road vehicular scenario has risen, especially in systems involving camera-based vision. The primary objective of the paper is to propose a design of a system for real-time video acquisition. Hence, a design for a Camera Hardware simulator has been proposed in this paper. The system involves a camera that captures visual information through its image sensor. The system is designed such that it can do direct display; that is, it can generate vertical and horizontal synchronization signals, as per the specification of the camera and it can buffer the pixel clock coming from the camera and send it to another system that uses the video information being received such as an in-vehicle display to display it. It also includes the ability to record the incoming data stream in a computer for offline processing.
