    Abstract: A method and system for generating a combined rearview image of an area behind a vehicle that is towing a trailer, the method including: capturing a first image from a vehicle camera that is installed on the vehicle, the first image being comprised of an area behind the vehicle; capturing a second image from a trailer camera that is installed on the trailer, the second image being comprised of an area behind the trailer; determining an obstructed viewing region within the first image, the obstructed viewing region being a region of the first image in which the trailer resides; overlaying the second image on the first image and at least partially within the obstructed viewing region; and inserting graphics in the first image, in the second image, and/or in a patch region within the obstructed viewing region and between the second image and the first image.

    Abstract: A camera system for a vehicle includes a body defining a cavity therein, and a camera including a lens. The camera is disposed in a deployed position such that the lens protrudes from the cavity. The camera system includes a debris region covering the lens and a duct disposed within the cavity. The duct defines a channel therein and has a first end spaced apart from the camera and a second end spaced apart from the first end. The duct is configured for directing an airstream through the channel from the first end to the debris region. A vehicle including the camera system is also disclosed.

    Abstract: A display system includes a camera configured to capture raw images of a region proximate a vehicle. A housing is coupled to an interior portion of the vehicle and is movable between distinct first and second positions. A position sensor is coupled to the housing and configured to produce a first signal in response to the housing being in the first position and a second signal in response to the housing being in the second position. A controller is in communication with the camera and the sensor. The controller is configured to process the raw images, output display images with a first field of view in response to the first signal, and output display images with a second field of view in response to the second signal. A display screen is disposed in the housing, and is in communication with the controller and configured to display the display images.
