Abstract: System and method for adjusting side mirrors capture, by a primary camera, a facial image of a driver; estimate a 3D eye location with respect to a 3D coordinate of the primary camera based on the captured facial image; map the estimated 3D eye location to a respective set of pitch and yaw of the side mirror based on a look up table; and rotate the side mirror to a target position in accordance with the respective set of pitch and yaw. The lookup table includes a plurality of rows, each containing a pair of a key and a set of values. The key is a set of three parameters of 3D line of locations where the driver can observe an optimal view behind the vehicle, and the set of values includes a set of pitch and yaw of the side mirror corresponding to the 3D line of locations.

Abstract: A method for adjusting a side mirror of a vehicle includes capturing, by a primary camera provided in front of a driver of the vehicle, a facial image of the driver; estimating a 3D eye location with respect to a 3D coordinate of the primary camera based on the captured facial image; mapping the estimated 3D eye location to a respective set of pitch and yaw angles of the side mirror based on a lookup table; and rotating the side mirror to a target position in accordance with the respective set of pitch and yaw angles. The lookup table includes a plurality of rows, each row containing a pair of a key and a set of values. The key is a 3D eye location, and the set of values includes a set of pitch and yaw angles of the side mirror corresponding to the 3D eye location.
