Vehicle blind spot monitoring system
First Claim
1. A vehicle blind spot monitoring system comprising:
- at least one adjustable side view mirror;
a mirror controller with a processor and memory, said mirror controller being configured to control an angular orientation of said at least one adjustable side view mirror;
at least one mirror adjustment actuator configured to enable a vehicle occupant to remotely adjust, in a normal operating condition, an angular orientation of said at least one adjustable side view mirror in a normal orientation range; and
at least one blind spot adjustment actuator configured to enable a vehicle occupant to remotely adjust, in a blind spot operating condition, an angular orientation of said at least one adjustable side view mirror in a blind spot orientation range;
wherein said at least one adjustable side view mirror, said at least one mirror adjustment actuator, and said at least one blind spot adjustment actuator are each communicatively interconnected with said mirror controller, and wherein said mirror controller memory carries thereon blindview software which, when executed by the processor, causes the processor to carry out steps comprising;
saving data regarding a desired orientation position of said at least one side view mirror when said at least one side view mirror is adjusted and upon disengagement of at least one of said at least one mirror adjustment actuator and said at least one blind spot adjustment actuator by a user.
