Interior Mirror Display for Multi-Camera Field-of-View Switching

The system is divided into distinct modular components: multiple camera modules can be independently configured and connected to the multiplexor through standard interfaces. Each camera operates as an independent unit that can be added, removed, or reconfigured without affecting other cameras, enabling flexible system assembly and maintenance while maintaining overall system functionality.

The multiplexor is designed as a universal data aggregation component that can interface with multiple different camera configurations and types through standardized protocols. This universal interface allows the same multiplexor hardware to support various camera arrangements (different numbers, positions, and specifications) without requiring custom integration for each configuration, thereby improving adaptability while controlling complexity through standardization.

The multiplexor performs preliminary data aggregation and preprocessing of image data from multiple cameras before the data reaches the main processing unit. By consolidating data streams and performing initial processing steps in advance, the system reduces the computational burden on downstream processors and minimizes overall processing time while ensuring complete information from all cameras is captured and organized.

Each camera module includes onboard processing capabilities that perform initial image processing and data formatting before transmission to the multiplexor. This self-service approach allows cameras to prepare their data independently, reducing the processing load on central systems and enabling parallel processing of multiple camera streams, thereby maintaining information completeness while reducing overall processing time.

The mirror assembly incorporates adjustable components with specific local functionalities that can be configured for different vehicle types. Rather than redesigning the entire assembly, specific modules (such as camera mounts, positioning mechanisms, or reflective elements) can be adjusted or reconfigured to match different vehicle specifications, enabling adaptability while maintaining standardized manufacturing processes for the core components.

The mirror assembly incorporates adjustable and reconfigurable elements that allow post-manufacturing adaptation to different vehicle types. Mechanical adjustment mechanisms, programmable camera positions, or software-configurable parameters enable the same physical assembly to serve multiple vehicle applications without requiring custom manufacturing for each vehicle type, thereby improving adaptability while controlling manufacturing complexity through standardized base designs.
