Electrical adjustment of outside mirror of motor vehicle when changing lanes based on angle at which change is made

摘要

When changing lanes or carriageways, the angle at which the change is made is measured, and the outside mirror (16,17) is automatically displaced to an optimised position, at least temporarily, based on the measured angle. A GPS navigation system (11) is used to detect the lane or carriageway change. When entering or exiting a motorway or expressway along carriageways that are often driven along, the settings of the mirror may be automatically stored (13), and activated at the corresponding points along the road. An Independent claim is included for an apparatus for electrically adjusting the outside mirror of a motor vehicle.
