AI Technical Summary
When driving, drivers often encounter blind spots, making it difficult to respond promptly to traffic hazards. Existing blind spot observation systems are complex, costly, and provide unintuitive images, making them difficult to install on vehicles.
Design a blind spot lens that uses a concave lens to reduce the size of objects in the blind spot and refract them into the driver's field of vision. The lens projects light from the blind spot onto the driver through a circular, elliptical, or polygonal lens. It is made of glass, crystal, or resin material and has a continuously variable focal length. The lens can be used alone or stacked with a prism.
It enables drivers to directly observe objects in blind spots, expands their field of vision, reduces traffic safety hazards, and has a simple structure and low cost.

TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to a blind area observation device for a vehicle. BACKGROUND
[0002] When a driver drives a vehicle, there is a blind area in the observation area of the driver due to the structural limitations of the vehicle, which makes it difficult for the driver to observe the dynamic of the blind area and respond in time, and there is a potential safety hazard in driving. Most of the existing blind area observation systems or sensing systems for vehicles use electronic imaging, radar detection and other methods, and the structure of the device is complex, the cost is high, and the image is not intuitive. It is difficult to install a blind area observation system on a vehicle later. SUMMARY
[0003] The purpose of the present application is to provide a blind area lens that can directly observe the blocked area.
[0004] The technical solution of the present application is: a blind area lens for observing the blind area of a vehicle, which is a lens prepared with a template obtained by projecting a circle, an ellipse, or any polygon along the main optical axis direction of a concave lens to the lens body intercepted by the concave lens without the optical center area. The blind area lens reduces the image of the scene and refracts the light of the blind area scene to the driver, allowing the driver to observe the scene and event dynamics of the blind area to respond in time and avoid traffic hazards.
[0005] The template for preparing the blind area lens is intercepted from a plano-concave lens, a double-concave lens, or a Fresnel lens.
[0006] The material for preparing the blind area lens is glass, crystal, resin, or soft gel.
[0007] Further, the blind area lens is provided with a continuously changing focal length.
[0008] Further, the blind area lens is composed of two pieces of the blind area lens stacked together, or one piece of the blind area lens and one piece of a triple prism lens stacked together.
[0009] The problem solved by the present application is that the blind area lens uses a concave lens to reduce the blind area scene and expand the observation field of view, while the local concave lens refracts the light in the same direction, and the blind area scene light is projected to the driver according to the planned path, achieving the purpose of the driver directly observing a larger blind area.
