Abstract: A camera monitoring system for motor vehicles is provided. An image capturing device is provided on a mounting assembly of the vehicle for an exterior field of view (FOV) of the vehicle extending sideward and rearward outside the vehicle and encompassing a portion of the exterior part of the vehicle. An electronic control unit (ECU) is connected to the image capturing device to obtain a captured image. An electronic display device is connected to the ECU and is located inside the vehicle and to be used by a driver. A gesture detector is configured to obtain at least one position of at least one part of the driver's body. The ECU is configured to adjust the FOV based on the obtained position and the display device is configured to display the adjusted FOV in a displayed image region, which can be moved within the captured image.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a speckles detection system for detecting one or more speckles on a surface of an optical element of an image capturing device. The system comprises: one or more light sources configured to emit a light beam towards the optical element, the optical element being configured to reflect light from the light sources when speckles are located on the surface of the optical element. The system further comprises one or more light receivers configured to receive the light beam reflected by the optical elements such that speckles on the surface of the optical elements are detected. Methods for detecting one or more speckles on a surface of an optical element of an image capturing device are also provided.
