Dynamically adjustable mirrors

A dynamically adjustable system for updating an angular orientation of a surveillance device of a moving vehicle, the system comprising:

• a surveillance device;
• a motor coupled to the surveillance device, the motor configured to rotate the surveillance device about an axis;
• a pitch and roll sensor providing a pitch and roll signal;
• and,
• a controller communicating with the pitch and roll sensor and a turn signal switch of the vehicle, the controller receiving a turn indication signal from the turn signal switch and the pitch and roll signal from the pitch and roll sensor, the controller calculating the updated angular orientation of the surveillance device based on the turn indication signal and the pitch and roll signal, the controller providing an updated angular orientation signal to the motor;
• wherein the motor rotates the surveillance device based on the updated angular orientation signal from the controller, the surveillance device providing a driver of the vehicle with a key desired field of view.

A method for dynamically updating an angular orientation of a surveillance device of a moving vehicle, the method comprising:

• receiving the angular position signal from a compass based angular sensor;
• receiving a turn indication signal from a turn signal switch;
• calculating the updated angular orientation of the surveillance device based on the angular position signal and the turn indication signal by a controller;
• providing an updated angular orientation signal to the motor based on the updated angular orientation;
• and,
• rotating the surveillance device based on the updated angular position signal.

A dynamically adjustable system for updating an angular orientation of mirrors of a moving vehicle, the system comprising:

• a mirror assembly comprising:
• a center mirror section having a left side and a right side;
• a left mirror section rotatively coupled to the left side of the center mirror section;
• a first motor coupled to the center mirror section and the left mirror section, the first motor configured to rotate the left mirror relative to the center mirror section;
• a right mirror assembly rotatively coupled to the right side of the center mirror section;
• and,
• a second motor coupled to the center mirror section and the right mirror section, the motor configured to rotate the right mirror relative to the center mirror section;
• and,
• a controller coupled to the first motor and the second motor, the controller configured for changing the view of the left mirror section and a right mirror section during a turn, the left and the right mirror sections providing a driver of the vehicle with a key desired field of view.
