A vehicle mirror system for a vehicle coupled to a trailer is provided. The vehicle mirror system includes first and second mirror assemblies configured to be located on first and second sides of the vehicle, a trailer angle sensor for sensing a hitch angle between the trailer and the vehicle, and a controller for controlling actuation of the first mirror assembly to control a first viewing window of the first mirror assembly for a driver of the vehicle, wherein the first mirror assembly is adjusted to redirect the viewing window to track a feature on the trailer as the trailer articulates relative to the vehicle based on the hitch angle. The second mirror assembly may be controlled to move inwards and downwards.

A mirror assembly includes a mirror housing and a mirror. The mirror is supported by the mirror housing. The mirror has an outer reflective surface. The mirror is bendable between a flat shape and a fisheye shape. The mirror assembly further includes an actuator assembly coupled to the mirror. Upon actuation, the actuator assembly is configured to bend the mirror between the flat shape and the fisheye shape to adjust a field of view of the mirror.

Systems and methods for a self-adjusting vehicle mirror. The mirror automatically locates the face of the driver or another passenger, and orients the mirror to provide the driver/passenger face with a desired view from the mirror. The mirror may continue to reorient itself as the driver or passenger shifts position, to continuously provide a desired field of view even as he or she changes position over time. In certain embodiments, the mirror system of the disclosure can be a self-contained system, with the mirror, mirror actuator, camera, and computing device all contained within the mirror housing as a single integrated unit.

A vehicular rearview mirror assembly includes a mirror reflective element that has a flexible glass substrate with a mirror reflector coating at a surface of the flexible glass substrate. An electrically-operated actuator is operable to cause flexing of the flexible glass substrate. With the vehicular rearview mirror at a vehicle, and responsive to actuation of a user input by a driver of the vehicle, the electrically-operated actuator operates to adjust a curvature of the flexible glass substrate to adjust at least a portion of a rearward view of the driver of the vehicle when viewing the mirror reflective element.

Techniques for vehicle collision avoidance are disclosed. Driver position data identifying a position of a driver with respect to a reference point is received from position sensor. The driver position data is compared by a processor against a predefined position threshold. A rear-view display mounted in a rear-view mirror housing is activated to display signals received from a wide-view rear facing camera when a result of comparing the driver position data against a predefined position threshold indicates that the driver position is at least equal to the predefined position threshold.

System, methods, and other embodiments described herein relate to adapting operation of an assistance system in a subject vehicle according to a presence of a trailer. In one embodiment, a method includes, in response to determining that the trailer causes an occlusion to perception of at least one sensor about a surrounding environment of the subject vehicle, modifying system parameters associated with the assistance system according to the occlusion to adapt how the assistance system operates while the occlusion is present. The method includes controlling the assistance system as a function of the system parameters to improve assistance provided to an occupant of the subject vehicle.

A back view mirror device for a vehicle, an automatically adjustable back view mirror apparatus for a vehicle and a method for automatically adjusting position of a back view mirror for a vehicle are provided. The back view mirror device includes: a back view mirror body; a translation actuating device configured to drive the back view mirror body to translate and position the back view mirror body in a translating direction; and a rotating actuating device configured to drive the back view mirror body to rotate and position the back view mirror body in a rotating direction.

A vehicle collision avoidance system has a side-view camera positioned on a side portion of a vehicle and configured to present a driver with a rear side view exterior to the vehicle. A display is coupled to the side-view camera and disposed in view of the driver to output a video stream from the side-view camera. A turn signal sensor is configured to detect activation of a turn signal. A controller is configured to receive signals from the turn signal sensor and to adjust a field of view of the side-view camera based on activation of the turn signal.

A HUD apparatus, that can achieve favorable AR display by reducing display shift between a real and virtual image, includes: an image input unit that receives an image from a camera and extracts a predetermined object; an information acquiring unit that acquires object information containing the object's position and distance information containing the object's distance in space; an AR image creating unit that creates an AR image for superimposing on the object; a display position converter uses the acquired information to correct a position of an AR display area that is a range where the AR image is displayable in a visual recognition area and a display position of the AR image inside the AR display area; an AR display that controls superimposing of the AR image on the visual recognition area from data after the correction; and a display that displays the AR image on the visual recognition area.
