at the front and rear of the vehicle image
and the seams where each of the camera images merge are blind spots.

If an image containing an object with a conspicuous color is picked up by any of
the cameras, the screen area for each camera may be a ffected and it may display
in that color.
Obstructions displayed in the front view may not display on the top view screen.If the position or angle of each camera changes due to tilting of the vehicle, the
image may appear distorted.
Lines on the road may appear distorted at the seams where each of the camera
images merge.
The screen area for each camera may appear bright/dark depending on the
