Abstract: In a night vision arrangement for a motor vehicle a camera is provided which captures an image which is subsequently displayed on a display arrangement which may be a head-up display arrangement. The camera directs light on to a beam deflector which may be constituted by a mirror which deflects the beam so that it passes along a neck on to a sensor. The camera may relatively easily be mounted in position in a motor vehicle.

Abstract: In a night vision arrangement for a motor vehicle in which a camera captures an infra-red image of the roadway in front of the vehicle, a video signal generated by the camera is processed by a signal processor so that the field of view of the image displayed by a display unit is selected in accordance with a control signal. The control signal is generated by a signal generator which is responsive to one or more parameters of the movement of the vehicle. The width of the field of view may be decreased with increasing speed. The axial direction of the field of view may be adjusted depending upon the nature of a turning movement of the vehicle.

Abstract: In a night vision arrangement for a motor vehicle in which a camera (1) captures an infra-red image of the roadway in front of the vehicle, a video signal generated by the camera is processed by a signal processor (2) so that the field of view of the image displayed by a display unit (3) is selected in accordance with a control signal. The control signal is generated by a signal generator (15) which is responsive to one or more parameters of the movement of the vehicle. The width of the field of view may be decreased with increasing speed. The axial direction of the field of view may be adjusted depending upon the nature of a turning movement of the vehicle.

Abstract: In a night vision arrangement for a motor vehicle a camera (1) is provided which captures an image which is subsequently displayed on a display arrangement (3) which may be a head-up display arrangement. The camera (1) has a lens (4) which is aligned with a beam deflector (6) which may be constituted by a mirror (7) which deflects the beam so that is passes along a neck (8) on to a sensor (11). The camera may relatively easily be mounted in position in a motor vehicle.
