A display system of a vehicle includes a person detection device that detects a person on one side of the vehicle in a top view of the vehicle, a display device provided on the vehicle exterior on the side opposite to the one side of the vehicle, and a controller that controls the display device. When the person detection device detects a person, the controller controls the display device to display a warning indicating presence of the person, on a display of the display device.

METHOD FOR DETERMINING OBJECT INFORMATION RELATING TO AN OBJECT IN A VEHICLE ENVIRONMENT, CONTROL UNIT AND VEHICLE
20220398852 · 2022-12-15 ·

The disclosure relates to a method for determining object information relating to an abject in an environment of a vehicle having a camera. The method includes: capturing the environment with the camera from a first position; changing the position of the camera; capturing the environment with the camera from a second position; determining object information relating to an object by selecting at least one first pixel in the first image and at least one second pixel in the second image, by selecting the first pixel and the second pixel such that they are assigned to the same object point of the object, and determining object coordinates of the assigned object point by triangulation. Changing the position of the camera is brought about by controlling an active actuator system in the vehicle. The actuator system adjusts the camera by an adjustment distance without changing a driving condition of the vehicle.

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.
