VDO ProViu 360° surround-view system

VDO’s ProViu 360° surround-view system helps overcome blind spot issues and reduce the risk of accidents when manoeuvring large vehicles. It provides real-time, high-quality images using four specialised cameras with 187° fisheye lenses, giving the driver or operator 360° all-round vision with a view of the vehicle’s surroundings.

The system has retrofit and original equipment applications on a wide range of public transport, trucks, buses, commercial, contracting, agricultural and special-purpose vehicles. The four-camera system is linked to provide all-round visibility for the operator, reducing blind spots and displaying pedestrians, obstacles and dangerous situations that may not appear in direct rear-view mirrors. The transmitted images are adjusted perspectively and consolidated to create a preview in one bird’s-eye view.

The electronic control unit (ECU) merges the four images and/or selected views and displays them in a useful, user-friendly format on the screen located in the cab. The view can be configured to individual requirements to suit the driver’s needs.

Suitable for applications such as dense city traffic, narrow loading areas, cluttered factory yards, building sites or when negotiating narrow streets with parked cars, cyclists and obstacles, the system has full certification for EMC and type approval.
