A vehicular occupant monitoring system includes a camera disposed at an interior rearview mirror of a vehicle. A polarization filter is disposed between an imaging array sensor of the camera and occupants of the vehicle such that light reflected off of the occupants of the vehicle passes through the polarization filter prior to reaching the imaging array sensor. The vehicular occupant monitoring system, responsive to processing by the image processor of image data captured by the camera, determines presence of an occupant of the vehicle.
