The present invention relates to a device for detecting contamination of a camera lens using a light source of a vehicle, and a method thereof. According to the present invention, light is irradiated around the vehicle, an image of the surroundings of the vehicle before the light is irradiated and an image of the surroundings of the vehicle while the light is being irradiated are obtained, and, by comparing the image of the surroundings of the vehicle before the light is irradiated with the image of the surroundings of the vehicle while the light is being irradiated, it is possible to determine whether contamination exists on the lens of the camera. Through the present invention, it is possible to provide an effect of improving the difficulty of detecting camera lens contamination at night when the brightness is dark using a light source of a vehicle.

    본 발명은 차량의 광원을 이용해 카메라 렌즈의 오염을 검출하는 장치 및 그 방법에 관한 것으로, 본 발명에 의하면, 차량의 주변에 빛을 조사하고, 빛이 조사되기 전의 차량의 주변 영상과 빛이 조사되는 중의 상기 차량의 주변 영상을 획득하고, 빛이 조사되기 전의 차량의 주변 영상과 빛이 조사되는 중의 차량의 주변 영상을 비교하여, 카메라의 렌즈에 오염이 존재하는지 여부를 판단할 수 있다. 본 발명을 통해, 차량의 광원을 이용해 밝기가 어두운 밤에 카메라 렌즈 오염의 검출이 어려운 것을 개선하는 효과를 제공할 수 있다.
