Surrounding vehicle display method and surrounding vehicle display device
A surrounding vehicle display device includes: a surrounding information detection device that obtains information on surroundings of a host vehicle; and a vehicle speed sensor that detects a vehicle speed of the host vehicle. The surrounding vehicle display device includes a controller that uses the information obtained by the surrounding information detection device to generate a virtual image that indicates the surroundings of the host vehicle as being viewed from above the host vehicle and a display displays the virtual image. The controller makes a display region of at least a rear region around the host vehicle on the virtual image wide when the vehicle speed detected by the vehicle speed sensor is higher than a low vehicle speed.
Transparent Trailer Articulation View
A method for providing a panoramic view (152) of an environment behind a trailer (106) of a vehicle-trailer system (100). The method includes receiving a first image (133, 133b) from a rear trailer camera (132, 132b), a second image (133, 133c) from a right-side trailer camera (132, 132c), and a third image (133, 133d) from a left-side trailer camera (132, 132d). The method includes determining a panoramic view (152) based on the first image (133, 133b), the second image (133, 133c), and the third image (133, 133d). Additionally, the method includes determining a trailer angle (α) based on sensor system data (131) received from a sensor system (130). The method includes determining a viewing area (154) within the panoramic view (152) based on the trailer angle (α) and sending instructions (156) to a display (122) to display the viewing area (154).
PERIPHERY MONITORING DEVICE FOR WORKING MACHINE
A periphery monitoring device calculates an expected passage range indicating a range of a locus of a machine body when a lower travelling body travels in an imaging direction of a camera, based on a slewing angle of an upper slewing body and an attitude of an attachment, and superimposes a range image indicating the calculated expected passage range on an image captured by the camera to display the superimposed image on the display.
Vehicle vision system camera with adaptive field of view
A vehicular vision system includes a camera disposed at a vehicle and having an exterior field of view. The camera includes a wide angle lens providing the field of view and the camera captures an image data set representative of the field of view of the camera. During a driving maneuver of the vehicle, an image processor processes a sub-set of the image data set to determine presence of an object in a sub-portion of the field of view of the camera. The sub-set of the image data set that is processed at the image processor is representative of the sub-portion of the field of view of the camera that is less than the field of view of the camera. The sub-set of the image data set that is processed at the image processor is based on steering direction of the vehicle during the driving maneuver of the vehicle.
Driver-assisting system for an industrial vehicle
A driver-assisting system for an industrial vehicle comprising: a first camera mounted on a vehicle cab for viewing an area in front of the vehicle; an image processing unit operatively connected to said first camera for receiving image data from said first camera; a display unit operatively connected to said image processing unit for displaying image to a user based on said image data; a control unit operatively connected to said first camera for modifying operating parameters of said first camera; wherein the first camera is adapted to provide a wide-angle field of vision, and in that the field of vision of said first camera relative to the vehicle can be adjusted by the control unit.
Methods and systems providing an intelligent camera system
Systems and methods for an intelligent camera system are provided. A method includes receiving, from a first camera in a vehicle, view data corresponding to an area from a vantage point of the vehicle. The method further includes detecting a region of interest from the view data provided by the first camera. The method also includes providing the region of interest to a second camera in the vehicle. The method further includes receiving, from the second camera, zoom view data corresponding to a zoom view of the region of interest.
Image presentation for vehicles with multiple cameras
Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to a camera monitor system providing areas of importance to a driver, to a corresponding vehicle and to a method for operating such a camera monitor system comprising at least two separate cameras arranged to record camera views of the surrounding of the vehicle being different for each camera and at least one monitor with a monitor screen suitably arranged to provide the recorded camera views on the screen at least to the driver of the vehicle, wherein the provided camera views and/or an arrangement of the different recorded camera views on the monitor screen depend(s) on a status of the vehicle, wherein a control unit is adapted to observe the status of the vehicle and to alter the arrangement of the camera views provided on the screen in dependence on the observed status of the vehicle.
Stereo camera adjustment system
A stereo camera adjustment system disposes an adjustment plate that displays an adjustment chart for adjusting deviation of image information caused by position misalignment of the stereo camera at a predetermined position relative to a vehicle mounted with a stereo camera, capture an image of the adjustment chart, and process the captured image of the adjustment chart to correct the deviation of the image information. The stereo camera adjustment system includes a plate movement device that adjusts a disposed state of the adjustment plate relative to the vehicle, a detector that detects an attitude of the vehicle stopped at a defined position, and a controller that controls, based on the detected attitude of the vehicle, the plate movement device to adjust the disposed state of the adjustment plate such that the adjustment plate is at the predetermined position relative to the vehicle.
Vehicular vision system with video display
A vehicular vision system includes a plurality of cameras and an ECU. The cameras are in communication with one another via a vehicle network and image data captured by the cameras is provided to the ECU. Responsive to a type of driving maneuver of the vehicle, (i) the ECU generates a first control signal that enables automatic control of exposure, gain and white balance of one camera of the plurality of cameras and (ii) the ECU generates respective second control signals that disable automatic control of exposure, gain and white balance of at least one other camera of the plurality of cameras. Responsive to processing of captured image data, composite video images derived from image data captured by the plurality of cameras are synthesized, and composite images are displayed that provides bird's eye view video images derived from video image data captured by the cameras.
Mobile terminal and control method thereof
Disclosed is a mobile terminal that provides an augmented reality navigation screen in a state of being hold in a vehicle, the mobile terminal including: at least one camera configured to obtain a front image; a display; and at least one processor configured to calibrate the front image, and to drive an augmented reality navigation application so that the augmented reality navigation screen including at least one augmented reality (AR) graphic object and the calibrated front image is displayed on the display.
