Abstract: The invention relates to a method for generating a representation of an environment (U) of a vehicle (1) including the steps of: capturing respective images by means of a first camera (2) and a second camera (2) generating a virtual image (31) of a virtual camera (3) from the images, wherein at least a first perspective, in which the environment (U) of the vehicle (1) is represented from a bird's eye perspective, for a first virtual camera position (33) and a second perspective, in which exclusively an area of the environment (U) of the vehicle (1) rearwards related to the vehicle (1) is represented, for a second virtual camera position (44) of the virtual camera (3) are selectable for the virtual image. In order to allow an improved overview, it is provided that the representation of the environment (U) by the virtual image (31) is adapted to a shift of the virtual camera (3) towards an interior mirror (8) of the vehicle (1) upon switching from the first perspective to the second perspective of the virtual image (31) and to a rotation of the virtual camera (3) upon reaching a mirror plane of the interior mirror (8).

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for detecting an object (12) alongside a road (10) of a motor vehicle (1) based on at least two images (13) of an environmental region (9) of the motor vehicle (1) consecutively captured by at least one vehicle-side camera (4) for extrinsic calibration of the at least one camera (4), wherein the images (13) at least partially display a texture of a road surface (11) and wherein the following steps are performed: a) determining at least two mutually corresponding blocks (14) based on the at least two images (13); b) determining respective motion vectors for each of the at least two pairs of mutually corresponding blocks (14); c) determining a depth information concerning the at least two images (13) based on the at least two motion vectors; d) detecting the object (12) based on the depth information. The invention also relates to a computing device (3), a driver assistance system (2) as well as a motor vehicle (1).

Abstract: The operation of combinations of a vehicle and a trailer is to be rendered safer. For this purpose a method for reproducing images from backward cameras of a combination of a vehicle and a trailer is suggested. A first image (RV) from a first backward camera, which is arranged on the vehicle, and a second image (TR) from a second backward camera are simultaneously reproduced on a display unit in the vehicle. For the reproduction a predeterminable window (F) of the display unit is used in order to represent exclusively the second image (TR) from the second camera of the trailer.

Abstract: A method operable in a towing vehicle for determining a state of a trailer being towed by said towing vehicle is disclosed. The vehicle comprises a front facing and a rear facing image capturing device and the method comprises determining respective distances of the rear facing image capturing device and the front facing image capturing device from a surface on which the vehicle lies. Responsive to one or both of: the distance of the rear image capturing device being outside a first threshold, and the distance of the front image capturing device being outside a second threshold, a value indicative the state of the towed trailer is output.

Abstract: A communication assembly is disclosed. The communication assembly includes a radio frequency (RF) module configured to obtain RF data from an antenna of a vehicle, a camera module configured to obtain image data of a scene exterior to the vehicle, and a communication unit, operatively connected to the RF module and the camera module, configured to embed the RF data in a first frequency band of an analog signal, embed the image data in a second frequency band of the analog signal, and transmit, via a single physical medium communication link, the analog signal to a vehicle communication unit of the vehicle. The vehicle communication unit is configured to demodulate the analog signal to retrieve the RF data and the image data for providing, to an electronic control module (ECU) of the vehicle.

Abstract: A camera system for a vehicle that includes a camera unit having a serializer and a control unit having a deserializer connected to the serializer is provided. The deserializer includes a plurality of data contacts for parallel data output. One or more of the data contacts are data contact general purpose inputs/outputs (GPIO) pins that communicates with GPIO pins of a data processing unit of the control unit.

Abstract: A system having a load device coupled to an output of an electronic control unit (ECU) via a coaxial cable, and the ECU is disclosed. The ECU has a power supply configured to provide power for the load device, a power over coaxial cable (PoC) filter coupled to the output, a high side switch (HSS) coupled to the power supply and to the PoC filter via an HSS output line, and a diode disposed in the HSS output line and configured to substantially eliminate current flow from the output towards the HSS, while allowing current to flow from the HSS towards the load device from the HSS.

Abstract: A battery reverse polarity protection circuit is disclosed. The battery reverse polarity protection circuit includes a field effect transistor (FET) coupled to a control circuit. The FET is configured to transmit an input voltage from a normal-polarity-connected battery to an output terminal, and block the input voltage from a reverses polarity-connected battery to the output terminal. The control circuit is coupled to the input terminal, the output terminal, and a common terminal and is configured to detect, during transmission of the input voltage from the normal-polarity-connected battery to the output terminal, that the input voltage is less than an output voltage, indicating onset of an abnormal operating mode, and turn off the FET to prevent the output voltage from being affected by the input voltage during the abnormal operating mode.
