A display device includes a light collector including a camera unit having a camera and a window unit having a window, an optical unit that controls a path of light received from the window unit, and a transparent display panel including at least one pixel area that displays an image based on an image captured by the camera unit and at least one transmissive area that displays an image received from the optical unit.

Viewing system (20) for a vehicle, comprising:—at least one camera (25),—a monitor (26) arranged within the compartment (4),—at least one cable (30) connecting the camera (25) to the monitor (26),—at least one support (21) comprising a fixed support part (22) and a movable support part (23) rotatably mounted on the fixed support part (22), wherein the support (21) comprises at least one tensioning arrangement (35) configured to resiliently urge at least a cable portion of the cable (30) along a travel as the movable support part (23) is moved in a plurality of positions.

A vehicular illumination module configured for mounting at an exterior portion of a vehicle includes a housing, a printed circuit board accommodated in the housing, and first and second light emitting diodes disposed at the printed circuit board. The first light emitting diode (LED) is operable to emit, when electrically powered, visible light, and the second LED is operable to emit, when electrically powered, infrared or near-infrared light. The first LED is electrically powered responsive to actuation of a key fob or detection of a passive entry device to provide visible ground illumination at the ground near the exterior portion of the vehicle. The second LED is electrically powered responsive at least in part to operation of a camera at or near the exterior portion of the vehicle to provide infrared or near-infrared light in the field of view of the camera.

A collision avoidance assembly for reducing collisions with a semitrailer includes a rear and side facing alert modules, which are mountable to a semitrailer, and a control module, which is mountable in a cab of a semitruck engaged to the semitrailer. Each alert module comprises a sensor, a camera, and a speaker. The sensors detect and the cameras image an approaching vehicle. The speaker and the control module provide audible alerts to a driver of the approaching vehicle and an operator of the semitrailer, respectively, so as to facilitate collision avoidance.

A method for automatically adapting a view angle of a displayed image on a side screen of a rear vision system of a vehicle, said rear vision system having a side camera adapted to generate said displayed image according to a varying view angle between a minimal and maximal value, the method comprising following steps: obtaining instant GPS location data; obtaining a map; determining the location of the vehicle on the map at each determined interval; adapting the view angle of the displayed image in function of the location of the vehicle on the map, the view angle being set on a default value outside the merging portions and the view angle being varied according to a widening pattern along a merging portion.

A work vehicle is provided with a first portion having a frame supported by ground engaging units, and an operator cab with a first (forward) side and opposing second and third sides having respective (i.e., left and right) fields of view. At least a first portion of terrain proximate to the frame (i.e., an area of interest) is obscured from view of an operator in the operator cab during at least a portion of a trajectory of movement of a second portion of the work vehicle (e.g., a boom assembly). At least one imaging device is mounted on the work vehicle and has a field of view including the area of interest throughout the trajectory of movement of the second portion.
