Methods and camera monitor systems including camera perspective transformation features

Abstract

A method for a camera monitor system (CMS) includes utilizing a camera mounted to tractor of a commercial vehicle to obtain an image of an external environment of a trailer of the commercial vehicle; determining a homography matrix for providing a perspective transformation of the image according to a target panning magnitude for the commercial vehicle and according to a target orientation adjustment for the camera; and utilizing the homography matrix to perform the perspective transformation and thereby obtain a modified version of the image. The perspective transformation simulates adjustment of at least one of a pitch, yaw, and roll of the camera. The method also includes displaying the modified version of the image on an electronic display. A CMS is also disclosed.
