Image synthesis system for a vehicle and the manufacturing method thereof
First Claim
1. An image synthesis system for a vehicle comprising:
- a first camera disposed on the vehicle and shooting a first image of the periphery of said vehicle;
a second camera disposed on the vehicle and shooting a second image of the periphery of said vehicle, wherein the second image and the first image have an overlap region;
an image processing device comprising;
a defining component for defining the first image into a plurality of first points each has a first residual error, and defining the second image into a plurality of second points each has a second residual error; and
a synthesis component for synthesizing the first image and the second image and output a third image, wherein when the first point overlaps to the second point only the point which has lower residual error will be shown in the third image; and
a display device for displaying the third image.

Abstract
The present invention discloses an image synthesis system for a vehicle to provide the driver with a downward-facing image of the car'"'"'s 360° surrounding view. The system includes: a first camera, which is used to shoot a first image of the periphery of the vehicle; a second camera, which is used to shoot a second image of the periphery of said vehicle, wherein the second image and the first image have an overlap region; an image processing device comprising a defining component and a synthesis component, which is used to synthesize the first image and the second image and output a third image; a display device, which is used to display the third image.
