ISO 16505 SFR and MTF Testing for Camera Monitor Systems
ISO 16505 is the standard for camera monitor systems (CMS) that replace a vehicle’s mirrors, and its SFR chart measures the resolution of the whole camera-to-monitor chain — not just the camera. Why CMS testing images the display with a second camera, the slanted-edge SFR chart on an 18% gray background, the LW/PH spatial-frequency unit that trips people up, the multi-chart bundle ISO 16505 defines, and how it differs from ISO 12233.
