Abstract

According to an aspect of the present disclosure, a method for adjusting a view mirror in a vehicle is disclosed. The method includes obtaining a first angle of the view mirror, capturing an image of a head of a driver, determining, from the captured image, a viewing distance and a perpendicular distance between a location in the head and the view mirror, calculating a view angle based on the viewing distance and the perpendicular distance, wherein the view angle is an angle between a direction orthogonal to the view mirror and a view direction associated with the location in the head and the view mirror, determining a second angle of the view mirror based on the first angle and the view angle, and adjusting the view mirror from the first angle to the second angle.
