A vehicle imaging system for a vehicle including a rear viewing device configured to be located at a lateral side of the vehicle. The vehicle imaging system including an image capturing unit and a display unit. The image capturing unit is configured to take images of surroundings of the vehicle, is located in the proximity of the rear viewing device, includes an optical axis and a field of view, and is configured such that the field of view of the image capturing unit generally extends rearward until a forward limit of a field of view of the rear viewing device. The display unit is configured to communicate with the image capturing unit and displays the images, and is adapted to be located in an interior of the vehicle.

Vehicle imaging system

A vehicle image processing system including a control unit and a display unit. The control unit processes an image of the exterior of the vehicle. The display unit displays at least a part of the image. The control unit operates the display unit in first and second modes. The first mode displays at least a part of the image, and the second mode displays at least first and second adjacent regions. The second region is located at least in a lateral end of the display unit, where in the first region the display unit displays part of the image displayed in the first mode, and in the second region the display unit removes the part of the image not displayed in the first region.

Vehicle image processing system

A mirror assembly for a vehicle comprises a switchable reflective element that can change between a high reflection state and a low reflection state. The mirror assembly also includes a controller communicating with the switchable reflective element, the controller being able to change the switchable reflective element between a high reflection state and a low reflection state. The mirror assembly further includes a housing configured for attachment to the vehicle and housing at least the switchable reflective element.
