Abstract
A vehicle backing assistance system is described. The vehicle backing assistance system includes a first device and a second device. The first device includes a camera, a microphone, a light, an ultrasonic proximity sensor, a significantly waterproof body, and a battery. The first device can then be releasably connected to a rear end of a vehicle. Images, video, audio, and depth sensing are collected by the first device, which are then transmitted to the second device at a remote location. As a result, a user can monitor the images, video, audio, and depth sensing using software on the second device that are collected by the first device while located away from the second device. For instance, the user could monitor that rear end of a vehicle while being located at a front cab of the vehicle. This can be useful when the user is backing the vehicle.
