    摘要: A view system (100A, 100B) for a vehicle (1) has an image capture unit (10, 10A, 10B) for capturing image data of a portion around a vehicle (1), an image processing unit (20A, 20B) for processing the captured image data, and an image reproduction unit (30, 30A, 30B) for reproducing the processed image data. Included are an image sensor (11) and an optical element having a distortion curve. The image data are distorted dependent on the position of the image sensor according to the distortion curve. The image processing unit (20A, 20B) is adapted for taking at least one partial portion (12, 12′) from the image data of the image sensor (11), wherein the geometry of the partial portion (12, 12′) is dependent on the position of the partial portion (12, 12′) on the image sensor (11).

    摘要: A socket joint for carrying a mirror head or indirect vision system on a support tube (2) to be mounted to a vehicle and a mirror or indirect vision arrangement comprising such socket joint and a mirror head or indirect vision system is provided. The socket joint comprises a support tube (2) with at least one opening (7) to be attached to a vehicle, a joint base (4) contacting the support tube (2), at least one anchor (6) extending through said at least one opening (7) in said support tube (2), and at least one fastener (8) engaging the at least one anchor (6) and extending through a fastening hole (11) in the joint base (4) into the anchor (6). By the engagement of the fastener (8) in or with the anchor (6), the portion of the anchor (6) located within the support tube (2) engages an interior surface of said support tube (2) and said support tube (2) is clamped between anchor (6) and joint base (4). For carrying a mirror head or an indirect vision system, the socket joint is furthermore provided with a carrier structure (3) providing the connection between joint (4) base and the mirror head or an indirect vision system. By the engagement of the fastener (8) in or with the anchor (6) the portion of the anchor (6) located within the support tube (2) may additionally expand radial outwardly to increase to contact area between anchor (6) and support tube (2).
