Operating principle

Using one or two cameras, the close
surroundings of the vehicle are recorded whilst
manoeuvring at low speed.
An image from above your vehicle in its close
surroundings is reconstructed (represented
between the brackets) in real time and as the
manoeuvre progresses.
It facilitates the alignment of your vehicle when
parking and allows obstacles close to the vehicle
to be seen. It is automatically deleted if the
vehicle remains stationary for too long.
With 360 Vision, the image is created using
both cameras, when going forward and when
reversing.
When the function is activated, it is possible
that the view from above is not displayed. If the system is activated when the vehicle has
already moved, the view from above can be fully
displayed.
