Abstract: An indirect viewing system for a vehicle has at least one image capture device (2) having an image sensor (3) for continuously taking images at a first frame rate, an image memory (4) that temporarily stores images for processing that is temporally after the images are captured, and an image processing device (6) adapted to continuously compute at least one new image from at least two successively taken images, the computed new images having a second frame rate different from the first frame rate, and an image output device (5) for outputting the continuously computed new images at the second frame rate.

Abstract: A display system for a commercial vehicle, having a capturing unit for acquiring image data of the vehicle environment, a calculation unit and a display unit for displaying an image to be displayed with an image portion. The calculation unit is adapted to carry out a modification of the image data acquired by the capturing unit and to supply the modified image data to the display unit for display. The modification uses overlaying or superimposing of an overlay portion on the image portion of the image to be displayed, wherein the overlay portion is positioned within or directly adjacent to the image portion, and wherein the image portion further includes a measuring portion. An image characteristic of the image portion is acquired in the measuring portion. The calculation unit is adapted to determine an overlay portion characteristic dependent on the acquired image characteristic.

Abstract: A camera for use on vehicles, in particular commercial vehicles. The camera has a housing including a first accommodation portion and a second accommodation portion, an optical element disposed within the first accommodation portion, and a digital image capturing unit provided on a circuit board. The circuit board is disposed within the second accommodation portion. The housing is formed by a first part consisting of plastic and a second part which is vapor resistant.

Abstract: A camera for use on vehicles, in particular commercial vehicles. The camera has a housing, at least one optical element disposed within the housing, a group of circuit boards disposed within the housing and including at least one circuit board. The group of circuit boards has at least one active circuit for executing a direct camera function. The camera further comprises at least one heating element adapted for heating the group of circuit boards, the optical elements, and/or the housing, wherein the at least one heating element is directly attached to one of the circuit boards of the group of circuit boards.

Abstract: At least a first and second monitoring device that outputs display signals to a control device. A display device connected with the control device is able to display the display signals from the monitoring devices in at least two sections in split screen mode. The control device is connected to an actual state of motion signal line, so that depending on the actual state of motion of the vehicle, the display device displays at least two display signals originating from at least two different monitoring devices in split screen mode.
