1. A method of calculating at least one dimension of a towed vehicle, the method comprising:

  • sensing an image of the towed vehicle with an image sensing device;

    identifying a feature on the towed vehicle in the sensed image of the towed vehicle with a controller using a dimension determination algorithm; and

    determining the at least one dimension of the towed vehicle from the identified feature of the towed vehicle, with the controller using the dimension determination algorithmwherein determining the at least one dimension of the towed vehicle from the identified feature of the towed vehicle includes using one of either a stereo disparity ranging process, or a structure from motion ranging process.
