Abstract
A surround view system includes at least at least one camera pair formed by two cameras with overlapping fields of view adapted to generate camera images with an overlapping area. The system also includes and a processing unit configured to compute surround view images including overlapping areas with respect to each camera and to extract features from the computed surround view images resulting in binary images for each overlapping area. Priority in visualization is given to the camera image of the overlapping area generated by the camera of the respective camera pair where a calculated sum of binary values within the resulting binary image is highest.
