A vehicular vision system includes a camera fixedly mounted at a vehicle. The camera has a central viewing axis that bisects a total available field of view exterior of the vehicle of the camera into an at least 90 degrees zone to the left and to the right of the central viewing axis. During a driving maneuver of the vehicle, a video display screen displays video images representative of a reduced field of view of the camera that is less than the total available field of view exterior of the vehicle. During the driving maneuver of the vehicle, and as the steering angle of the vehicle is adjusted toward the right side or left side of the vehicle, the reduced field of view of the camera digitally pans toward the respective right side or left side of the total available field of view exterior of the vehicle of the camera.

Vehicular vision system with adaptive field of view

A vehicular vision system includes a camera disposed at a vehicle and having an exterior field of view. The camera includes a wide angle lens providing the field of view and the camera captures an image data set representative of the field of view of the camera. During a driving maneuver of the vehicle, an image processor processes a sub-set of the image data set to determine presence of an object in a sub-portion of the field of view of the camera. The sub-set of the image data set that is processed at the image processor is representative of the sub-portion of the field of view of the camera that is less than the field of view of the camera. The sub-set of the image data set that is processed at the image processor is based on steering direction of the vehicle during the driving maneuver of the vehicle.

Vehicle vision system camera with adaptive field of view

A vision system for a vehicle includes a camera configured to be disposed at a vehicle so as to have a field of view exterior of the vehicle. The camera includes a wide angle lens providing a field of view of the camera and the camera captures an image data set representative of the field of view of the camera. An image processor may process image data captured by the camera and may process a sub-set of the image data set representative of a sub-portion of the field of view of said camera that is less than the field of view of the camera. A display may display images derived from the sub-set of the image data set representative of the sub-portion of the field of view of the camera. The sub-set of the image data set for processing or display is determined based on steering of the vehicle.
