Abstract
A rear view mirror system for motor vehicles comprising a rear view mirror device that comprises a rear view mirror base to be attached to a vehicle, a rear view mirror head attached to the rear view mirror base, and a mirror element arranged in the rear view mirror head and being transparent or translucent from inside of the rear view mirror head. An actuator enables an orientation of the mirror element to be adjusted by rotating and/or tilting the mirror element and/or the rear view mirror head. A camera is arranged inside the rear view mirror head behind the mirror element for recording a camera view (CV) with a first viewing angle of the surroundings of the vehicle at least through the mirror element, wherein a control unit processes the camera view (CV) received form the camera to provide a monitor view (MV) with a second viewing angle being smaller than the first viewing angle being displayed on a monitor to provide the monitor view (MV) to a driver of the vehicle.
