A method for tracking a trailer end in an image using a controller includes receiving an image from at least one camera, identifying a trailer end in the image and tracking a motion of the trailer end through the image for a period of time using a controller. A motion model is generated based on the motion of the trailer end through the image using the controller. The controller responds to the trailer end exiting the image by maintaining motion of the trailer end per the motion model for a delay time period and establishing an estimated trailer end position dictated by the motion model at the end of the delay time period in response to the time period elapsing and the trailer end not being visible using the controller.

Aspects of the present invention relate to an image correction system (300) for mitigating image flicker from strobed lighting systems. The image correction system (300) comprises one or more controllers (120) comprising input means (122), processing means (121) and output means (122). The input means (122) is configured to receive, from a first imaging apparatus (111) comprising a first pixel array configured to operate with at least a first exposure time, first image data (141) indicative of an environment. The input means (122) are configured to receive, from a second imaging apparatus (112) comprising a second pixel array configured to operate with at least a second exposure time different to the first exposure time, second image data (142) indicative of at least a portion of the environment. The processing means (121) are configured to identify strobed lighting regions of the first image data (141) and strobed lighting regions of the second image data (142); and to determine corrected image data for mitigating image flicker of the strobed lighting regions of the first image data (141) in dependence on a correspondence between the strobed lighting regions of the first image data (141) and the strobed lighting regions of the second image data (142). The output means (122) is configured to output a signal indicative of the corrected image data.

A camera mirror system for a vehicle includes, among other things, a camera that has a field of view, a display in communication with the camera that is configured to depict the field of view, and an infrared light-emitting diode (IR LED) that is configured to illuminate the field of view. The IR LED is configured to operate at a temperature. The system further includes a controller that is configured to provide at least one of a warning or an IR LED shut down command in response to the temperature exceeding a threshold.

A support for a camera on a motor vehicle, including at least a main body with a guide and a bracket element which is pivotable relative to the main body and is connected to the main body via at least one guide rail, and which extends along an extent between a first end and a second end, wherein the camera may be arranged on the second end, wherein the first end is arranged on the guide, wherein the bracket element is pivotably connected to the at least one guide rail between the first end and the second end, and wherein, when the bracket element is pivoted, the first end is displaceable along the guide and the bracket element is displaceable along the at least one guide rail.

The invention relates to a cab for a heavy-duty vehicle, such as a bus or truck, whereby at least three display screens are arranged inside the cab, each display screen having a display function, so that at least three different images, containing information for the driver, can be displayed, wherein all the screens are connected to one and the same communication network so that any signal can be transmitted through the network to the display screens and, accordingly, the display function of each screen can be modified.

A camera monitor system includes a camera arm that has a camera with an image capture unit that is configured to capture an image of a desired field of view. A display is configured to display the desired field of view, and an IR LED illuminates at least a portion of the desired field of view. A controller is in communication with the image capture unit and the IR LED and select at least first and second regions of interest (ROI) from the captured image. The first ROI is indicative of an amount of ambient light. The controller determines a luminance of each of said first and second ROIs. The controller regulates an IR LED state of the IR LED based upon the first ROI luminance, and adjusts the IR LED state based upon the second ROI luminance.

A vehicle such as a motor car (V) equipped with a radio equipment (14) is provided with a rearview camera 5 (10). Video frames from the rearview camera (10) are received at the radio equipment (14) and transmitted to a mobile communication device (S) such as a smart phone equipped with a video screen (S1) so that video frames from the rearview camera (10) are displayed on the 10 video screen (S1) of the mobile communication device (S).

For a vehicle (1) with a tractor (2) and a trailer (3), a view system has a capture unit (10) with an image sensor (12) for capturing image data of an area of view, around the vehicle, a processing unit (20) for processing the image data, and a reproduction unit (30) for reproducing at least one first image section (410) and one second image section (420) of the area of view (40) captured by the capture unit (10). The processing unit provides different resolutions of image data depending on the position of the tractor with respect to the trailer.

A camera monitor system including a first mirror replacement assembly including a housing supporting a rear facing camera and a rear facing range sensor, a controller in communication with the mirror replacement assembly, the controller including a processor and a memory, the memory storing instructions for identifying at least one object in an image feed from the camera and determining an angular position of the object using image analysis, identifying a distance of the at least one object from the mirror replacement assembly using the range sensor; and fusing the distance and the angular position of the object into a single data set, and a display connected to the controller and configured to display a mirror replacement view including at least a portion of the image feed.

A camera monitoring system includes a first mirror replacement camera extending outward from a vehicle. The first mirror replacement camera defines a rearward facing field of view including at least one image feature during at least a first set of operating conditions. The at least one image feature has a fixed position within the field of view during the at least the first set of operating conditions. A camera monitoring system controller is configured to automatically calibrate an orientation of the first mirror replacement camera relative to the vehicle by comparing an expected position of the at least one image feature to an actual position of the at least one image feature while the vehicle is operating under the first set of operating conditions and identifying a shift of camera orientation based on the difference.
