Abstract
A system for producing a virtual image view for a vehicle is provided. The system includes one or more image capture means configured to capture image data in proximity to the vehicle, the image data being defined at least in part by first viewpoint parameters, and to provide an identifier identifying the respective one or more image capture means, storage means configured to store a plurality of virtualization records containing conversion information related to a virtualized viewpoint and a plurality of image capture means, and processing means. The processing means are configured to receive the captured image data, convert the first viewpoint parameters of the captured image data into virtual viewpoint parameters based on the conversion information associated with a virtualization record stored by the storage means, to result in the virtual image view, wherein the virtualization record is identified at least based on the identifier, and execute at least one driver assistance and/or automated driving function based on the virtual image view.
