Abstract
A vehicular camera module includes a housing assembly that includes an inner housing element that accommodates a transparent cover element and that is pivotable relative to an outer housing element that mounts at a vehicle. A camera is accommodated by the housing assembly and mounted to the outer housing element. The camera views exterior of the vehicle via the cover element. An outer surface of the cover element is exposed exterior of the vehicle and, when the inner housing element and the cover element pivot relative to the outer housing element, a wiper of the outer housing element engages the outer surface of the cover element to remove moisture and/or debris from the outer surface of the cover element.
