The present disclosure relates to a vehicle advancing monitoring system, comprising: a monitoring unit configured to acquire image information in a specified direction of the vehicle, and generate alarm information upon detection of an object with a relative distance to the vehicle less than a preset value in the specified direction, the specified direction referring to a left rear direction and/or a right rear direction; a display unit configured to display the image information acquired by the monitoring unit; and an alarm unit configured to alarm according to the alarm information. The present disclosure can ensure safe driving.

A first motor is driven to move a camera configured to image an area (imaging area A) in front of a vehicle such that a vehicle cabin inside (imaging area C) is imageable, and a second motor is driven to move a camera configured to image an area (imaging area B) behind the vehicle such that a vehicle cabin inside (imaging area D) is imageable. The swing of the cameras by the motors enables imaging of the vehicle cabin inside with the cameras configured to image the vehicle cabin outside. For this reason, there is no need to prepare a camera that images the vehicle cabin inside, separately from the camera that images the vehicle cabin outside, and thus, it is possible to reduce cost as much.

A vehicle comprising an articulated joint and a sensor arranged on the articulated joint and configured to detect a lateral area of the vehicle. The sensor is configured to be swiveled in order to change a sensed area.

A display system includes an imaging section, a display section, a selection section, an operation section, and a display control section. The imaging section is configured to image toward a rear and a side of a vehicle. The display section is configured to display an image captured by the imaging section. The selection section is configured to allow selection of a standard mode or a wide-angle mode. The operation section is configured to enable operation of one out of forward driving or reverse driving of the vehicle. The display control section includes RAM, and switches to whichever mode has been set out of the standard mode or the wide-angle mode immediately prior to the vehicle being driven in reverse in cases in which an operation to switch from reverse driving to forward driving of the vehicle has been performed using the operation section while in a reverse driving mode.

A system for providing security functions to a vehicle may comprise a chassis and a drone. The chassis may be configured to be mounted on top of the vehicle. The chassis may include a drone port for housing a drone. The drone may include a camera. The camera of the drone may be configured to capture images of objects outside of the chassis while the drone is positioned in the drone port. A device including the chassis may be a light bar and further include lights positioned at a periphery of the device.

A method for automatically panning a view for a commercial vehicle includes determining a plurality of estimated trailer angles. Each estimated trailer angle is determined using a distinct estimation method, and method assigns a confidence value to each estimated trailer angle in the plurality of estimated trailer angles. The method determines a weighted sum of the plurality of estimate trailer angles, and automatically pans the view based at least in part on the weighted sum and a current vehicle operation.

A sideview mirror assembly for a vehicle can comprise a body including a sideview mirror housing. The sideview mirror assembly can include a camera located in the body about the sideview mirror housing. The camera can have a field-of-view including an above-horizontal region directed rearward toward an overhead target position past the sideview mirror housing. The camera can be mounted for movement relative to the body between a normal position, in which the sideview mirror housing intersects the camera and the overhead target position in the above-horizontal region, and an extended position, in which the sideview mirror housing does not intersect the camera and the overhead target position in the above-horizontal region. Movement of the camera from the normal position to the extended position can unblock camera visibility of the overhead target position by the sideview mirror housing.

The disclosure refers to a method for correcting stitching problems in a rearview system, said rearview system comprising at least two cameras mounted on at least one external camera wing of a vehicle, with the at least one camera wing being configured to be moved between an operating position, in which each camera has a rearview for capturing an image, and at least one folding position, and at least one display configured for displaying at least one of the images captured by each of the at least two cameras as a composite image and a menu for correcting stitching problems, the method comprising the steps of determining a change from the at least one folding position to the operating position of the at least one camera wing; opening the menu for correcting stitching problems; and closing the menu either after correction or after receiving a signal to skip correction.

A work vehicle has display devices and cameras coupled to display feeds at display areas. The cameras include a first set on the first side, second side, and central location relative to the first FOV and a second set on a first side, second side, and central location relative to the second FOV. A control system is configured to: in a first mode, display a first set of feeds from the first side, second side, and central location of the display areas so that the feeds are arranged at the first side, second side, and central location relative to the first FOV; and in a second mode, display a second set of feeds from the first side, second side, and central location of the second set at display areas so that the feeds are arranged at the first side, second side, and central location relative to the second FOV.

Systems and methods for fisheye camera calibration and BEV image generation in a simulation environment. This fisheye camera calibration enables the extrinsic and intrinsic parameters of the fisheye camera to be computed in the simulation environment, where data is readily available, collectible, and manipulatable. Given a surround vision system, with multiple fisheye cameras disposed around a vehicle, and these extrinsic and intrinsic parameters, undistorted and BEV images of the surroundings of the vehicle can be generated in the simulated environment, for simulated fisheye camera testing and validation, which may then be extrapolated to real-world fisheye camera testing and validation, as appropriate. Because the simulation tool can be used to create and readily manipulate the simulated fisheye camera, the vehicle, its surroundings, obstacles, targets, markers, and the like, the entire calibration and image generation process is streamlined and may be automated.
