Abstract:
Methods and systems are provided for controlling camera images of vehicle cameras. In one example, a camera, a radio system, a processor, and a display are disposed onboard a vehicle. The camera is configured to generate camera images. The radio system is configured to process the camera images. The processor is configured to at least facilitate determining whether a radio system of the vehicle is functioning properly; processing the camera images through the radio system prior to displaying the camera images within the vehicle, if the radio system is functioning properly; and providing instructions for displaying the camera images within the vehicle without processing the camera images through the radio system, if the radio system is not functioning properly. The display is configured to display the camera images in accordance with the instructions provided by the processor.
Abstract:
A system is provided for calibration of vehicle electronic modules. The system includes: a vehicle and a computing device separate from the vehicle. The vehicle includes: a vehicle communications interface, configured to facilitate communications with a computing device without utilizing an Assembly Line Diagnostic Link (ALDL) or on-board diagnostic (OBD) port; and a plurality of electronic modules, the plurality of electronic modules being configurable via calibration data received via the vehicle communications interface. The computing device includes: a computing device communications interface, configured to facilitate communications with the plurality of electronic modules of the vehicle via the vehicle communications interface; a human machine interface (HMI), configured to receive input from a user and to display information; and a processor, configured to execute a calibration application, the calibration application being configured to utilize the HMI of the computing device to receive input from the user, and further being configured to generate calibration data corresponding to the user input for transmission to respective vehicle electronic modules.
Abstract:
A rear view video system for a vehicle includes a display and a rear view camera that generates a raw video signal. A video modification module receives the raw video signal and generates a modified video signal based thereon. A video analysis module analyzes whether the modified video signal is valid or invalid. A switch outputs the modified video signal to the display when the vehicle is in reverse and the modified video signal is valid and outputs the raw video signal to the display when the vehicle is in reverse and the modified video signal is invalid.
