A system includes a camera housing and a control device associated with an autonomous vehicle. The camera housing houses a camera, and is mounted to an autonomous vehicle. The camera housing comprises a glass positioned in front of the camera. The glass is coated with a set of materials comprising a hydrophobic material and an anti-reflective material. The set of materials is configured to reduce ghosting effect on an image captured by the camera. The camera housing further comprises a top portion and a bottom portion. The top portion extends beyond the bottom portion to form a tilt angle. The tilt angle is configured to reduce indirect light from coming into a field of view of the camera. The processor facilitates autonomous driving of the autonomous vehicle using at least the image. The ghosting effect is reduced in the image due to using the set of materials.
