Abstract

A video interface for signals between a camera and displays, disposed on a vehicle, can include a microcontroller, a first port, and a second port. The microcontroller can be configured to process received signals to produce first digital signals and second digital signals. The received signals can represent images produced by the camera. The first digital signals can be for first representations of the images. The second digital signals can be for second representations of the images. The first port can be configured to be connected to a cable for a first display. The second port can be configured to be connected to a cable for a second display. For example: (1) the first representations can mimic images produced by a reversing camera and (2) the second representations can mimic a view observable in a rearview mirror. The video interface can be configured to be disposed on the vehicle.
