Abstract: A vehicular vision system includes a camera disposed at an underside of a vehicle. The camera is movable between (i) a deployed position, where the camera is at least partially exposed at the underside of the vehicle and views a region between the ground under the vehicle and at least a portion of the underside of the vehicle, and (ii) a stowed position, where the camera is moved from the deployed position toward the underside of the vehicle to reduce exposure of the camera. A deployment mechanism is electrically operable to move the camera between the deployed position and the stowed position. The vehicular vision system, based on processing of image data captured by the camera when in the deployed position, determines presence of an object at the region viewed by the camera and operates the deployment mechanism to move the camera to the stowed position.
