VISUAL RECOGNITION DEVICE FOR VEHICLE, AND FIELD ANGLE SETTING METHOD FOR PHOTOGRAPHY PART OF VISUAL RECOGNITION DEVICE FOR VEHICLE

摘要

To provide a visual recognition device for vehicle capable of displaying a photographic image similar to an image reflected in an optical mirror, and a field angle setting method for a photography part of the visual recognition device for vehicle.SOLUTION: A field angle of a rear camera is so set that when relation between the distance from the rear camera to an object of interest and the ratio of the size of the object of interest displayed to a size of the object of interest reflected in a half-mirror is found with the field angle of the rear camera fixed to a predetermined value, the size of the object of interest at an infinite distance of the relation is 0.33 to 0.5 time as large as the size of the object of interest reflected in the half-mirror.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 4
