A display screen of a display apparatus of an image display system includes a one-way mirror on a front side of the display screen. In an image processing apparatus, an image signal input obtains a captured image signal representing a captured image captured by a camera that captures an image of surroundings of the vehicle; an image generator that generates the display image from the captured image signal; an image output that outputs the display image to the display apparatus to cause the display image to be displayed on the display screen of the display apparatus; and a processor that controls the image generator to cause a partial region of the display image to be a black image so that a portion of the display screen at which the black image is displayed functions as a mirror.

An infant safety car seat seamlessly and permanently integrated into the bench seat between two adult seats or replacing the adult seats if more than one is incorporated into the vehicle. The child seat is sunken or not below and behind the vehicle bench and seat and safety harnesses are permanently installed to secure an infant in the safety seat. The seat adjusts to allow forward or rearward facing configurations suitable to different ages of the infant, from zero to eight years old. Security features are internally integrated to prevent the incidence of leaving an unbuckled and/or an unattended infant in a vehicle that includes some combination of a scale, hasps sensors in display and video monitor of cameras in screen.

A camera system for a vehicle may include a control interface configured to receive an input from a driver and generate a signal, and at least one camera configured to capture video of an interior of the vehicle. The camera system may also include a display configured to output video to the driver, and a controller in communication with the control interface, the camera, and the display. The controller may be configured to receive the signal from the control interface, actuate the at least one camera to capture video based on the signal, and output the video to the display based on the signal.

The disclosure belongs to the field of monitoring equipment and provides an automobile dual-camera monitor system, including a first camera, a second camera, a transmission line and a display, the first camera and the second camera being fixed in an automobile through a first fixing assembly and a second fixing assembly respectively, and a camera end of each of the first camera and the second camera facing a front end of a safety seat. With the above automobile dual-camera monitor system, in the process of driving, whether there are two infants sitting on rear-facing safety seats or two young children on forward-facing safety seats, or an infant on a rear-facing safety seat and a young child on a forward-facing safety seat in a rear seat, video signals captured by the first camera and the second camera are transmitted to the same display by means of wired transmission and displayed separately on split-screen, so that a driver can obtain a clear view of the two children in the process of driving without turning head to check on the children, improving the safety of driving.

Systems, methods and apparatuses to detect an item left in a vehicle and to generate an alert about the item. For example, a camera configured in a vehicle can be used to monitor an item associated with a user of the vehicle. The item as in an image from the camera can be identified and recognized using an artificial neural network. In response to a determination that the item recognized in the image is left in the vehicle after the user has exited the vehicle, an alert is generated to indicate that an item is in the vehicle but the user is leaving the vehicle.

The present invention is directed to a system and methods of monitoring a child seated in the rear seat of a vehicle in a child's car seat employing a video camera which transmits a video signal to a video display receiver placed in the driver's frame of vision. The video camera as envisioned herein is placed within a child's stuffed toy, the camera signal being transmitted remotely to a separate video display monitor screen device, viewable to the parent driving the vehicle. The camera is adjustable in the number of positions in which it is placed in the vehicle compartment as well as the direction in which the camera is directed. To adjust the direction in which the camera is pointed, the invention includes a bendable, flexible and sturdy neck that interconnects the camera to a transmission unit, which provides the driver with a view of the child.

A number of illustrative variations may include a method of using vehicle sensors to produce an alert.

A vehicle sun visor system with a touch screen display is configured to display video feed from one or more cameras. A front facing polarized and/or photochromic camera shows the area of view which is normally blocked by the deployed sun visor, allowing the user to view traffic lights, road signs, etc. without the distraction of glare. Software image processing may also be used to reduce glare and improve visibility. In addition, the sun visor system also has a see-me camera which allows the user to use the screen as a mirror, and one or more rear-view cameras which can be used to see the passenger area of a vehicle through the touch-screen display. Any of the cameras may be used to take photos or videos, which may be viewed on the display and transmitted wirelessly to other electronic devices or cloud storage.

An apparatus, system, controller, and method for displaying imagery within a vehicle are provided. The apparatus includes a front seat image collecting device disposed in a front area of the vehicle and configured to collect a front seat image of a front seat occupant. The apparatus also includes a back seat display disposed in a rear area of the vehicle, the back seat display being disposed within a viewing area of a back seat occupant. A controller or control system is configured to provide the front seat image to the back seat display, and the back seat display is configured to display the front seat image collected by the front seat image collecting device. In some variations, a back seat image can also be collected and displayed to a front seat display.
