Abstract: A switching device for left/right image inversion in a rear monitoring camera of automobile, which can ensure simplicity in assembling the camera and improve reliability of on/off operation by mounting a magnet sensor inside a body of the rear monitoring camera and attaching a magnet to the outside of the body. The switching device for left/right image inversion includes the magnet for generating a magnetic force, a pair of magnet insertion holes formed at a rear side of a casing connected to a printed circuit board mounted inside camera in such a manner as to be spaced apart from each other by a predetermined distance such that the magnet is inserted thereinto, and adapted to form a normal image and a mirror image, respectively.
