A system uses a wearable electronic device to monitoring behavior of an operator of a vehicle. The wearable device is worn on the head of the operator of the vehicle and includes one or more motion sensors. A processor of the wearable device or of a proximate portable electronic device receives data from the one or more motion sensors and detects a pattern of motion based on the data. The system then may determine a physiological state or physical behavior of the driver based on the detected patterns or motion. Detected physiological states may include head bobs associated with sleepiness. Detected physical behaviors may include dangerous behaviors such as phone usage, prolonged gazes, sudden lane changes, or hard braking or steering.

A vehicular imaging system includes an electronic control unit (ECU) and a camera device disposed at a body portion of the vehicle. The camera device includes structure that supports a camera and that is movable between a stowed position, where the structure and camera are within the body portion, and an extended position, where the structure and camera are extended outward from the body portion so that the camera is positioned with a field of view exterior of the vehicle. The structure includes a plurality of individually movable elements that are disposed adjacent one another and that cooperate to form the outer surface. The individually movable elements, when moved relative to the body portion of the vehicle, cooperate to extend and retract the camera. The camera, when the structure is in the extended position, captures image data and provides captured image data to the ECU.

A motor vehicle includes a rearview mirror display system with a visible surface and having a mirror mode and a display mode. The visible surface functions as a mirror in the mirror mode. The visible surface displays an electronically produced image in the display mode. An electronic processor is communicatively coupled to the rearview mirror display system. The electronic processor detects that the display mode is not operating properly, and, in response to the detecting, automatically switches the rearview mirror display system from the display mode to the mirror mode.

A vehicle-mounted display device includes a glass plate including a first arcuate surface at a first outer circumferential edge part and facing a front surface side, a casing that supports the glass plate from a rear surface side and including a housing and a frame that projects therefrom, and a display unit stored in the casing. A rear surface of the glass plate and a front surface of the frame are spaced and face each other. The frame includes a projection that projects from the front surface of the frame toward the rear surface of the glass plate at a second outer circumferential edge part of the front surface of the frame. The projection includes a second arcuate surface and a center and a radius of the second arcuate surface that are identical to a center and a radius of the first arcuate surface, respectively.

A vehicular camera assembly includes a camera housing having a front housing portion and a rear housing portion that joins the front housing portion. A first printed circuit board (PCB) is disposed at the front housing portion, with an imager disposed at a front side of the first PCB and a first electrical connector disposed at a rear side of the first PCB. A second PCB has a second electrical connector disposed at a front side of the second PCB. Board-to-board electrical connection of circuitry of the second printed circuit board to circuitry of the first printed circuit board is made via electrical connection of the first and second electrical connectors. The connector portion of the rear housing portion includes a multi-pin connector comprising a plurality of solid terminal pins. A connector portion of the rear housing portion is configured for connecting to a vehicle wiring connector.

A method of providing image includes obtaining at least one first image of a surrounding area (52) from a first camera (26, 33, 38A, 38B, 40A, and 40B). At least one second image of the surrounding area (52) is obtained from a second camera (26, 33, 38A, 38B, 40A, and 40B). The at least one first image is fused with the at least one second image to generate a three-dimensional model (51) of the surrounding area (52). A first image (54A) of the three dimensional model is provided to a display by determining a first position of an operator. A second image (54B) of the three-dimensional model is provided to the display by determining when the operator is in a second position to simulate motion parallax.
