An apparatus for controlling an imaging sensor in a vehicle includes an Ethernet transceiver, a sensor interface and a local processor. The Ethernet transceiver is configured to communicate over an in-vehicle Ethernet network with a remote processor. The sensor interface is configured to communicate with the imaging sensor. The local processor that is local to the apparatus and remotely located from the remote processor is configured to receive from the imaging sensor, via the sensor interface, image data and auxiliary data related to the image data, to send at least the image data to the remote processor via the Ethernet transceiver, to generate locally, based on the auxiliary data, and independently from the remote processor, control commands to control an operational aspect of the imaging sensor, and to send the control commands to the imaging sensor via the sensor interface.
