    摘要: Aspects of the present invention relate to a composite image generation system (1) for a vehicle. The system includes one or more controller (10). The composite image generation system (1) has an input configured to receive first image data (DIMG1) from a first imaging device (C1), the first image data (DIMG1) has a first time stamp (TST1-(t)) indicative of a time at which the first image data (DIMG1) was captured by the first imaging device (C1); and second image data (DIMG2) from a second imaging device (C2), the second image data (DIMG2) has a second time stamp (TST2-(t)) indicative of a time at which the second image data (DIMG2) was captured by the second imaging device (C2). The one or more controller (10)is configured to compare the first time stamp (TST1-(t)) with the second time stamp (TST2-(t)) to determine a time stamp discrepancy (TSTΔ). The one or more controller (10) generates composite image data (DIMG3) comprising at least a part of the first image data (DIMG1) and at least a part of the second image data (DIMG2). The one or more controller (10) is configured to control the output of the composite image data (DIMG3) in dependence on the time stamp discrepancy (TSTΔ). The present invention also relates to a vehicle; and to a method of generating a composite image.

    摘要: A camera monitoring system (CMS) for a vehicle includes a CMS controller that is connected to a plurality of cameras that are disposed about a vehicle and configured to receive a video feed from each of the cameras in the plurality of cameras, a first camera in the plurality of cameras defines a rear facing field of view. The CMS controller is configured to generate a plurality of display views using the video feeds, the plurality of display views include at least one rear facing display view. A first trailer rear view display is proximate a driver side A-frame. The CMS controller is configured to cause the first trailer rear view display to display the at least one rear facing display view.

    摘要: A vehicle system includes a display device that simulates a rear-facing mirror (e.g., rearview mirror). The display device displays a first video captured by a first camera to simulate the rear-facing mirror. The system detects a change in an orientation of the display device from a first orientation to a second orientation and, in response, causes the display device to display a second video captured by a second camera to maintain the simulation of the rearview mirror but from the second orientation. Alternatively, the system causes a corresponding change in the perspective of the first video being displayed on the display device thereby maintaining the effect of the rearview mirror.
