CAMERA MONITORING SYSTEM DISPOSED ON A PANEL OF A VEHICLE BODY - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18204792 titled 'CAMERA MONITORING SYSTEM DISPOSED ON A PANEL OF A VEHICLE BODY
Simplified Explanation
The abstract describes a camera monitoring system (CMS) installed on a vehicle body. The system includes a housing, a movable housing, a CMS camera, a motor part, a transparent part, and a controller.
- The housing is fixed on the vehicle body.
- The movable housing can move along the fixed housing.
- The CMS camera is located at one end of the movable housing.
- The motor part provides the driving force to move the movable housing.
- A transparent part is positioned on the housing, facing the CMS camera when the movable housing is retracted.
- The controller controls the motor part's movement and the on/off function of the CMS camera.
Potential Applications:
- Vehicle surveillance: The camera monitoring system can be used for monitoring the surroundings of a vehicle, enhancing safety and security.
- Parking assistance: The CMS camera can provide a clear view of the vehicle's surroundings, aiding in parking and maneuvering in tight spaces.
- Blind spot detection: By positioning the CMS camera strategically, it can help detect objects or vehicles in blind spots, reducing the risk of accidents.
Problems Solved:
- Limited visibility: The camera monitoring system addresses the issue of limited visibility for drivers, especially in areas where the driver's line of sight is obstructed.
- Safety concerns: The system helps improve safety by providing a clear view of the vehicle's surroundings, reducing the risk of collisions or accidents.
- Security enhancement: The CMS can act as a surveillance tool, deterring theft or vandalism and providing evidence in case of incidents.
Benefits:
- Improved safety: The camera monitoring system enhances the driver's visibility, reducing the chances of accidents and improving overall road safety.
- Convenience: The system assists in parking and maneuvering, making it easier for drivers to navigate in tight spaces.
- Enhanced security: The CMS acts as a deterrent to theft or vandalism and provides valuable evidence in case of incidents, increasing the security of the vehicle.
Original Abstract Submitted
A camera monitoring system (CMS) disposed on a panel of a vehicle body. A housing is disposed on a vehicle body. A movable housing is movable along the housing. A CMS camera is disposed on one end of the movable housing. A motor part provides driving force by which the movable housing moves along the housing. A transparent part is disposed on the housing and is located in an area facing the CMS camera when the movable housing is retracted into the housing. A controller controls a driving amount of the motor part and controls turning on/off of the CMS camera.
