Abstract
A device for adjusting a view range of a vehicular monitoring device includes a vehicle status detector mounted on a turning portion of a vehicle for detecting a turning degree of the turning portion, and outputting an adjusting signal associated with the turning degree; and a controller in communication with the vehicle status detector and the vehicular monitoring device, controlling the vehicular monitoring device to move from an initial position to a working position in response to the adjusting signal. The working position varies with the turning degree.
Claims41
A device for adjusting a view range of a vehicular monitoring device, comprising:
- a vehicle status detector mounted on a turning portion of a vehicle for detecting a turning degree of said turning portion, and outputting an adjusting signal associated with said turning degree;
- and
- a controller in communication with said vehicle status detector and said vehicular monitoring device, controlling said vehicular monitoring device to move from an initial position to a working position in response to said adjusting signal,
- wherein said working position varies with said turning degree.
A device for adjusting a view range of a vehicular monitoring device, comprising:
- a vehicle dynamics control system detecting a plurality of traveling parameters of a vehicle;
- and
- a controller in communication with said vehicle dynamics control system and said vehicular monitoring device, controlling said vehicular monitoring device to move from an initial position to a working position in response to a turning information included in said plurality of traveling parameters,
- wherein said working position varies with said turning information.
A device for adjusting a view range of a vehicular monitoring device, comprising:
- a slope detector for detecting a tilting degree of a vehicle, and outputting an adjusting signal associated with said slope information;
- and
- a controller in communication with said slope detector and said vehicular monitoring device, controlling said vehicular monitoring device to move from an initial position to a working position in response to said adjusting signal,
- wherein said working position varies with said tilting degree.
A device for adjusting a view range of a vehicular monitoring device, comprising:
- a backing-up sensor for determining whether a backing-up operation is to be performed;
- a turning detector for detecting a turning degree of a vehicle;
- and
- a controller in communication with said backing-up sensor, said turning detector and said vehicular monitoring device, controlling said vehicular monitoring device to move from an initial position to a working position according to said turning degree when said backing-up operation is determined,
- wherein said working position varies with said turning degree.
A device for adjusting a view range of a vehicular monitoring device, comprising:
- a backing-up detector for determining whether a backing-up operation is to be performed, and detecting a clearance of a vehicle from a rear object when said backing-up operation is determined;
- and
- a controller in communication with said backing-up detector and said vehicular monitoring device, controlling said vehicular monitoring device to move from an initial position to a working position according to said clearance,
- wherein said working position varies with said clearance.
A method for adjusting a view range of a vehicular monitoring device, comprising:
- receiving an output of a vehicular status detector;
- triggering said vehicular monitoring device to move between an initial position and a working position according to said output of said vehicular status indicator;
- and
- forcibly moving said vehicular monitoring device back to said initial position when an emergency state is determined.
