Abstract
A reversing assist system for a mining truck is described. The reversing assist system includes an image capturing device to capture a wide angled view of a rearward field of the mining truck including portions of two rear tires and portions of a rear end of a dump body of the mining truck. The reversing assist system includes a controller configured to overlay a first static indicator and a second static indicator on the video feed of the wide angled view. The first static indicator spans an inner distance between the two rear tires and the second static indicator represents portions of an outer periphery of the mining truck. The controller is configured to overlay a dynamic indicator on the video feed that dynamically changes to predict a rearward path of the mining truck on the video feed based on an angular movement of the mining truck.
