Side mirror simulation

摘要

The unit has an optical sensor (6) fixed in a housing, and a lens allowing wide field imaging on planes of the optical sensor. Data connection is provided to a vehicle (8), and a display unit (20) e.g. LCD, is attached at a position of a side mirror in a viewing direction of a driver (9). The simulation unit adjusts an image corresponding to an image that reflects the side mirror with a defined reflective surface and curvature. An image of the display device simulates the side mirror with an additional lens or simulates adjustment of view to the driver. An independent claim is also included for a method for side mirror simulation of a vehicle.
