Four-Camera Surround View (SV) parking assistance is an
emerging automotive Driver Assistance (DA) System which greatly improves a driver's
safety and comfort. The Surround View DA provides an unmatched
awareness of the situation by enabling the driver to see 360-degrees
around the vehicle on the LCD instrument cluster or the Central
Information Display (CID). The surroundings can be seen top-down from a
bird's eye view perspective, which eliminates all
blind spots during critical and precise maneuvers in crowded spaces. In this way the system prevents driver from colliding with objects scattered around the
vehicle or which are outside of the driver's field of vision.
The multi-camera based Surround View DA may combine other helpful views of the vehicle’s surroundings with the basic top-down surround view. Such views provide additional information and help in different traffic conditions. For example, drivers can switch on the rear camera view to check the vehicle’s back end from the driver’s perspective, or use dynamically drawn path lines showing the vehicle’s calculated trajectory during parking. The trailer-hitch view may be a great help in hooking the trailer up, while the cross-path view allows driver to quickly notice distant vehicles or pedestrians who are out of driver’s field of vision.
