A display section displays a shift indicator in a smaller size than that in a normal state at the start of display (upon switching the display) of the shift indicator. After that, the display section gradually enlarges a size of the shift indicator until it has a larger size than that in the normal state, and then gradually reduces the size of the shift indicator until it has the size in the normal state, thereby starting the display of the shift indicator in the size in the normal state. This operation provides a display device through which a driver can readily recognize the current shift position.

The invention relates to a method for operating a rearview camera system (2) of a motor vehicle (1), in which a sequence of images (15) of an environmental region (9) behind the motor vehicle (1) is provided by means of an image capturing device (3) of the rearview camera system (2) and the sequence of the images (15) is displayed on a display (10), wherein a headlight flasher (14) of a vehicle (13) located in the environmental region (9) is detected by the rearview camera system (2) and due to the detection of the headlight flasher (14), a warning signal (17) separate from the images (15) is generated, by which the detected headlight flasher (14) is signaled to the driver of the motor vehicle (1).

Embodiments of the present invention relate to an onboard display system for solving the problem of display image with poor clarity in the prior art, achieving a better grasp to situation outside the vehicle and driving safety of the driver. The onboard display system includes a camera module and a display. The camera module is installed at a predetermined position outside the vehicle for taking traffic images during driving and sending them to the display. The display is arranged inside the vehicle and adhered to the front windshield of the vehicle or hang before the front windshield of the vehicle for displaying the traffic images it received.

An embodiment of a camera module comprises: a lens part; a housing for coupling the lens part; a plurality of substrates which are disposed at an interval from each other inside the housing; and an electromagnetic field shielding part, disposed inside the housing, for preventing the occurrence of external leakage ‘of electromagnetic field from each of the substrates, wherein the electromagnetic field shielding part may comprise a coupling means for coupling the plurality of substrates at an interval from each other in the optical axial direction of the lens part.

The described positional awareness techniques employing visual-inertial sensory data gathering and analysis hardware with reference to specific example implementations implement improvements in the use of sensors, techniques and hardware design that can enable specific embodiments to provide positional awareness to machines with improved speed and accuracy.

The invention relates to a method for providing visual information (29) about at least part of an environment (16), the view onto which is at least in part concealed by a first vehicle (4) travelling ahead, wherein the first vehicle (4) is detected, the visual information (29) is requested, and in case of an availability the visual information (29) is received. Further, at least one image (25a) of a certain part of the environment (16) including at least part of the first vehicle (4) is captured and displayed together with the visual information (29) embedded in the at least one image (25a). Moreover, in case at least one object (O) is present in the certain part of the environment (16), the displaying of the visual information (29) is modified such that image parts representing the at least one object (O) are not covered by the visual information (29).

A cold planer can include a frame; an operator station coupled to the frame and including a monitor; a cutting rotor coupled to the frame, the cutting rotor configured to be lowered a selected distance into a surface to define a depth of cut; a conveyor to receive material from the cutting rotor; and a cutting rotor location indication system including: a camera coupled to the frame and oriented to show an area on a side of the frame; and a visual indicator system configured to receive a first image from the camera and display on the monitor a visual image of a location of a leading edge and a trailing edge of the cutting rotor relative to the surface.

An assembly of a lamp and a camera for an automobile, the assembly including: a light source configured to emit light forward; a camera provided on one side of the light source and configured to capture an external image; a lens unit provided in front of the light source and the camera; and a light blocking member which is provided to surround an outer side of a camera lens provided in the camera and which is configured to block at least a portion of light emitted from the light source. The light blocking member is provided in close contact with the lens unit.

A camera calibration method includes obtaining a plurality of images of surroundings of a vehicle captured by a plurality of cameras, setting a region of interest (ROI) in each of the images, detecting one or more feature points of the set ROIs, matching a first feature point of a first ROI and a second feature point of a second ROI based on the detected feature points, calculating a first bird-view coordinate of the first feature point and a second bird-view coordinate of the second feature point, and calibrating the cameras by adjusting an extrinsic parameter of each of the cameras based on an error between the first bird-view coordinate and the second bird-view coordinate.

An apparatus, method, and vehicle for providing a braking level of a forward vehicle may quantify a degree of braking of the forward vehicle into a braking level and provide the braking level of the forward vehicle to a driver. The apparatus includes a brake lamp position recognizing device configured to recognize positions of brake lamps of the forward vehicle based on an image and a relative acceleration of the forward vehicle, a braking determining device configured to determine whether or not braking of the forward vehicle is performed based on a brake lamp image extracted from the image of the forward vehicle, a braking level determining device configured to determine a braking level of the forward vehicle based on the relative acceleration of the forward vehicle, and a braking level image providing device configured to provide the determined braking level of the forward vehicle through an image.
