Abstract:
A control system for a vehicle includes a camera module having a plurality of cameras. A control is operable to adjust a field of view of the cameras responsive to an input. When the vehicle is traveling in and along a traffic lane, the control sets the field of view of at least some of the cameras forward through the vehicle windshield. Responsive to an input indicative of an intended lane change, the control adjusts at least one camera to set the field of view of the camera toward an exterior rearview mirror at the side of the vehicle at which the target lane is located. Responsive to determination, via processing of captured image data when the camera views the exterior rearview mirror of the vehicle, that the target lane is clear, the control controls the at least one vehicle control system to maneuver the vehicle into the target lane.
