A control system for construction machinery includes an upper camera installed in a driver cabin in a rear body to photograph the front of the driver cabin, a lower camera installed in a front body rotatably connected to the rear body to photograph the front of the front body, an image processing device configured to synthesize first and second images captured from the upper camera and the lower camera into one image, and configured to detect a shape of a front work apparatus in the first image to determine a steering angle of the front body and determine a position of a transparency processing area in which at least one of the first and second images is transparency-processed in the synthesized image according to the steering angle, and a display device configured to display the synthesized image transparency-processed by the image processing device.

A garbage truck camera and safety system includes a garbage truck having a lift arm mechanism, a hopper, and a trash compacting device disposed within the hopper. At least one camera and temperature sensor are disposed within the hopper. A control module is operably connected to the cameras and the temperature sensor, as well as to one or more vehicle systems, via a vehicle control interface disposed within the driver's cab. The control module includes a processor, a non-transitory computer readable medium operatively connected to the processor, and a logic stored in the non-transitory computer readable medium that, when executed by the processor, causes the system to detect, via the temperature sensor, the temperature within the hopper; and if the temperature detected is above a predetermined threshold temperature, then deactivating the trash compacting device. The system will prevent harm from being done to individuals who accidentally fall into the hopper.

A recording and reproducing control device includes a video data acquisition unit configured to acquire video data imaged by an imager for at least one of a front view and a rear view of a vehicle; a detector configured to detect that another vehicle gets close in a distance smaller than a predetermined distance to the vehicle while the vehicle is traveling at a predetermined speed or higher; a point-of-view conversion processor configured to perform a point-of-view conversion process for a bird's-eye view on the acquired video data; a recording controller configured to record the acquired video data; a reproduction controller configured to, when reproducing the video data of a period during which the another vehicle getting close in the predetermined distance or smaller to the vehicle is detected, reproduce the converted video data; and a display controller configured to cause a display to display the reproduced video data.

A head-up display and methods for providing a lane-related visual assistance function with a head-up display for a motor vehicle. Information is obtained regarding a driving lane currently travelled on by a motor vehicle. A characteristic value is obtained, which describes an uncertainty regarding the lane-related display of a virtual object serving as a visual assistance function with the head-up display. At least one virtual object is displayed as a visual assistance function, wherein the object is displayed such that it runs along at least a portion of the lane from the perspective of the driver, wherein a length of the object along the lane is defined according to the magnitude of the characteristic value.

A vehicle control device includes a display control unit configured to display a preceding vehicle image corresponding to a preceding vehicle and an overtaking proposal activation image based on a relative situation of the preceding vehicle with respect to the host vehicle and a surrounding environment of the host vehicle and configured to control display such that the overtaking proposal activation image and the preceding vehicle image approach each other in response to approaching of the host vehicle and the preceding vehicle, an automatic overtaking proposal unit configured to propose the automatic overtaking to a driver when the overtaking proposal activation image reaches the preceding vehicle image on the display screen, and a vehicle control unit configured to execute the automatic overtaking of the preceding vehicle by the host vehicle when the approval determination unit determines that the driver has approved the automatic overtaking.

Camera control systems and methods for providing a dynamic view of the environment outside of a vehicle are presented. One or more cameras are configured to capture at least one view of the environment outside of the vehicle. Control circuitry detects at least one of the speed of the vehicle and the pitch angle of the vehicle (e.g., by using a speedometer and inclinometer). The control circuitry selects a view angle based on the at least one of the speed of the vehicle and the pitch angle of the vehicle. The control circuitry then displays, based on an output of the at least one camera, a view of the environment outside of the vehicle from the selected view angle on a display of the vehicle.

Provided herein is an apparatus for displaying a forward blind spot situation. The apparatus for displaying a forward blind spot situation includes a front camera capturing a blind spot of a driver, a display device displaying image information on the blind spot of the driver captured through the front camera, and a processor controlling the image information on the blind spot of the driver captured through the front camera to be seamlessly output at a position of a driver's gaze.
