An ECU controls an in/out motor so as to, interlockingly with turning of a vehicle, change a viewing range of a periphery of the vehicle with respect to a vehicle occupant. The ECU controls the in/out motor such that the viewing range returns to an original viewing range by a time of an end of turning.

A vehicular interior rearview mirror assembly includes a mounting structure configured for mounting at an interior portion of a vehicle. The mounting structure includes a mounting arm that has (i) a proximal end portion and (ii) a distal end portion distal from the proximal end portion. With the mounting structure mounted at the interior portion of the vehicle, the proximal end portion of the mounting arm is attached at the interior portion of the vehicle. A motorized actuator is disposed within a mirror housing that accommodates a reflective element. The motorized actuator is electrically operable to adjust the reflective element and the mirror housing together and in tandem relative to the mounting structure to provide a desired rearward field of view to a driver of the vehicle when the vehicular interior rearview mirror assembly is mounted and operated in the vehicle.

Techniques for vehicle collision avoidance are disclosed. Driver position data identifying a position of a driver with respect to a reference point is received from position sensor. The driver position data is compared by a processor against a predefined position threshold. A rear-view display mounted in a rear-view mirror housing is activated to display signals received from a wide-view rear facing camera when a result of comparing the driver position data against a predefined position threshold indicates that the driver position is at least equal to the predefined position threshold.

A system for capturing and displaying images may comprise a rearview assembly having WIFI capability; and a WIFI hub removably securable to a surface, the WIFI hub comprising at least one imager capable of capturing images of a scene. The WIFI hub may be capable of transmitting image data from the captured images to the rearview assembly. The rearview assembly may be capable of displaying images from the image data from the captured images.

Provided are systems for switchable wheel view mirrors, which can selectively provide views of one or more wheels of a vehicle to, for example, check for obstructions. A system for a switchable wheel view mirror can include an image sensor coupled to a vehicle, a reflective surface, and an actuator. The image sensor can capture an image within a field of view of the image sensor. The reflective surface can be coupled to the actuator which moves the reflective surface between a first position and a second position. In the first position, a view of at least a portion of a wheel of the vehicle is visible within the reflective surface and the reflective surface is disposed at least partially within the field of view of the image sensor. Methods and computer program products are also provided.

An interior rearview mirror assembly includes a mounting structure configured for mounting at an interior portion of a vehicle. A distal end portion of the mounting arm is at an angle relative to a proximal end portion of the mounting arm at the interior portion of the vehicle. An attaching element is fixedly disposed at the distal end portion. A mirror housing includes an aperture, and the mounting arm of the mounting structure passes through the aperture without making contact with the mirror housing. A reflective element is attached at an attachment plate disposed within the mirror housing. A motorized actuator is mounted at the attachment plate at the reflective element or at the attaching element at the distal end portion of the mounting arm. The motorized actuator is electrically operable to adjust the reflective element and the mirror housing together and in tandem relative to the mounting structure.

An auxiliary vehicle mirror device includes a main rod unit, a securing unit and an auxiliary mirror unit. The main rod unit includes a connecting rod, first and second fixture rods connected perpendicularly to opposite ends of the connecting rod and extending respectively in opposite directions, and first and second ball fixtures disposed respectively on the first and second fixture rods. The first ball fixture is engaged with a first socket seat of the securing unit to be freely rotatable relative to it. The second ball fixture is engaged with a second socket seat of the auxiliary mirror unit to be freely rotatable relative to it.

A vehicle mirror system for a vehicle coupled to a trailer is provided. The vehicle mirror system includes first and second mirror assemblies configured to be located on first and second sides of the vehicle, a trailer angle sensor for sensing a hitch angle between the trailer and the vehicle, and a controller for controlling actuation of the first mirror assembly to control a first viewing window of the first mirror assembly for a driver of the vehicle, wherein the first mirror assembly is adjusted to redirect the viewing window to track a feature on the trailer as the trailer articulates relative to the vehicle based on the hitch angle. The second mirror assembly may be controlled to move inwards and downwards.

A vehicular vision system includes a camera disposed within a cabin of a vehicle equipped with the vehicular vision system and positionable to view within an interior cabin of the vehicle and positionable to view exterior of the vehicle through at least one window of the vehicle. The system includes an actuator disposed at the vehicle and electrically operable to rotate the camera about an axis relative to the vehicle. Multiple frames of image data captured by the camera as the camera rotates about the axis are processed at an ECU for a plurality of vehicle functions. Respective frames of image data of the multiple frames of captured image data are processed for respective vehicle functions of the plurality of vehicle functions based on respective viewing directions of the camera when the respective frames of image data are captured by the camera.

A vehicular interior rearview mirror assembly includes a mirror head adjustably attached at a mounting base configured to attach at an interior portion of a vehicle. A driver monitoring camera is accommodated by the mirror head so as to move in tandem with the mirror head when the mirror head is adjusted relative to the mounting base to adjust a driver's rearward view. A forward viewing camera is accommodated by the mounting base so as to have a forward field of view through the vehicle windshield. A processor is operable to process image data captured by the driver monitoring camera to determine (i) driver attentiveness, (ii) driver drowsiness and/or (iii) driver gaze direction. The processor adjusts processing of the image data captured by the driver monitoring camera to accommodate adjustment of the mirror head when the driver adjusts the mirror head to adjust his or her rearward view.
