Toshiba America VP of Image Sensor Business Unit Andrew Burt publishes a post on self-driven cars in his blog "Eye on Sensors." While mostly discussing legal and ethical issues of self-driving, the post also gives some statistics on automotive cameras:
"Vehicles may contain as many as 10 cameras when the age of self-driving cars arrives, and Strategy Analytics estimates that global shipments of automotive cameras will more than triple, reaching 102 million units by 2020 (see chart below)."
