For this month, the Japanese car maker has launched what it's calling the "Around View Monitor", a system that offers the driver a bird’s eye view of the vehicle and its surroundings in real-time.
In Japan, the Around View Monitor will make its debut in the new Elgrand, scheduled for introduction at the end of this month. Those customers in the US will have to wait until December, when the new system will make its first appearance in the new Infiniti EX35, scheduled for launch in December.
The Around View Monitor system itself synthesises a bird’s eye image of the vehicle and its surrounding from four ultrawide-angle (180-degree) high-resolution cameras mounted on the front, sides and rear of the vehicle. The system is particularly helpful when parking, enabling the driver to steer easily and precisely into a parking space.
