A vehicular multi-camera surround view system includes a front camera, a driver-side camera, a passenger-side camera and a rear backup camera. Image data captured by the cameras is conveyed to an electronic control unit, which is operable to combine image data conveyed from the front camera, the driver-side camera, the passenger-side camera and said the backup camera to form composite video images, and to output the composite video images to a display device of the vehicle. The electronic control unit is operable to process image data from the rear backup camera to form rear backup video images derived solely from image data captured by the rear backup camera and to output the rear backup video images to the display device. The rear backup video images are displayed no later than 2 seconds after the driver of the vehicle first changes propulsion of the vehicle during a new ignition cycle to reverse mode.

A vehicular system (1) includes a lateral shift amount measurement part that has a plurality of magnetic sensors that senses magnetism of magnetic markers (10) arrayed along a vehicle width direction and measures a lateral shift amount that is a positional deviation of a vehicle (5) in a vehicle width direction with respect to the magnetic markers (10) and a course estimation part that uses a difference between the lateral shift amounts with respect to two magnetic markers (10) disposed with a space provided therebetween in a road surface (100S) where the vehicle (5) travels and estimates a deviation of the vehicle (5) in a traveling direction with respect to a line segment direction connecting the positions of the two magnetic markers.

A parking assistance device includes an imager that captures an image of a surrounding of a vehicle, and a display that displays a guidance image for guiding the vehicle from a parking start position to a target parking position and displays a moving area in which the vehicle can move during a parking operation. An area and dimension of the moving area displayed on the display changes based on a change in a steering angle of the vehicle.

Methods, apparatus, systems and articles of manufacture are disclosed for vehicle steering to follow a curved path. An example vehicle disclosed herein includes a front axle, a rear axle, a location sensor, and a tracking mode controller to determine a wheel steering angle based on a turn center location corresponding to a navigation curve and one or more measurements between the turn center location and the vehicle, determine a heading error offset adjustment based on the turn center location and the one or more measurements between the turn center location and the vehicle, and cause the vehicle to move along the navigation curve based on the wheel steering angle and the heading error offset adjustment.

Methods and systems for providing Advanced Driver Assistance System (ADAS) warnings and/or other types of information to an occupant of a motor vehicle are provided. Warning lights can be provided around the perimeter of a shape that represents the perimeter of the vehicle from a top-view perspective. Lights around the shape can be lit to convey a sense of the area of danger and/or the direction from which danger is approaching.

A steering angle display device includes a display part disposed along a ring portion of a steering wheel of a vehicle; and a controller configured, during automated driving control in which a steering angle of the vehicle is controlled in accordance with road situations without rotating the steering wheel, to cause a steering angle indication indicating the controlled steering angle to be displayed at a position of the display part in accordance with the controlled steering angle.

An imaging apparatus captures a rear area behind a vehicle and generates an image, and displays on the image at a position in the image corresponding to the position between the vehicle and a detection object a recognition image extending a predetermined distance in a height direction with respect to road surface and having transmittance that increases with height distance from the road surface. A display control apparatus simultaneously displays a bird's-eye view image of a vehicle, a rear area image behind the vehicle, and a guide image extending rearward and being spaced apart in the width direction of the vehicle, and displays an image on lower right or left of the bird's-eye view image based on a position of an obstacle existing on right or left rear side of the vehicle, and a second image on right edge or on left edge of the image outside the guide image.

In accordance with an example embodiment, a vehicle includes a moveable member, posture sensing system, bird's-eye camera system, display, and controller. The posture sensing system indicates the moveable member's posture. The bird's-eye camera system provides images of its field of view, including the ground adjacent to the vehicle. The controller receives a posture signal from the posture sensing system, receives images from the camera system, creates a rendered vehicle representation, creates a rendered path projection, and generates a dynamically augmented bird's-eye view then displays it on the display. The moveable member is positioned in the rendered vehicle representation using the posture signal. The rendered path projection includes an outer envelope line projecting the path of an outermost point of the vehicle, determined using the posture signal. The dynamically augmented bird's-eye view is generated using the images, rendered vehicle representation, and rendered path projection.

Methods and systems for providing Advanced Driver Assistance System (ADAS) warnings and/or other types of information to an occupant of a motor vehicle are provided. Warning lights can be provided around the perimeter of a shape that represents the perimeter of the vehicle from a top-view perspective. Lights around the shape can be lit to convey a sense of the area of danger and/or the direction from which danger is approaching.

A driver assistance system for a vehicle having a hitch includes a trailer detection system, a steering system, and a controller. The controller determines that a trailer is not coupled with the hitch and outputs a reverse hitching path control signal to the steering system and determines that the trailer is coupled with the hitch and outputs a trailer backing path control signal to the steering system.
