Nissan uses VR technology as aerial guidance system
Obviously the “clever bods” at nissan saw the Google streetview and in a lightbulb moment – thought “lets make the car a camera!”
To us its technology is nothing spectacular but at the same time it’s something that actually works – and that’s all that matters.
I just hope my wife never (ever) tries to reverse a car using and aerial view.
Using 4 separate cameras, the monitor displays an image of the vehicle from above. This helps the driver to visually confirm the vehicle’s relation to the lines around the parking space. With this, the driver can position the vehicle for parallel parking or park the car in a smart way with ease.
The system has been designed to be easy-to-see, easy-to-use, and easy-to-understand.
- Easy-to-understand
- The birds-eye view makes it easy for the driver to position the vehicle for parallel parking. The front/rear view enables the driver to simultaneously confirm the front or rear of the vehicle. (right image)
- Information of the sonars, equipped on the vehicle corners for camera assistance, are shown on the display in an easy-to-understand way.
- Easy-to-use
- By displaying the rear view and front-side view simultaneously, the driver can easily confirm the two most worrisome areas; the rear and front assist side of the vehicle. (right image)
- Easy-to-see
- The super-wide angle/high resolution camera creates a clear image after conversion to show the virtual image (described below)
