Face Neutral positioning a camera on a vehicle

2015 
There is described a method (400) for determining a position for a camera to an outer skin of a vehicle (100), wherein the position is determined such that the camera an object at a vision reference point (204) behind the vehicle (100) can capture. The method (400) comprises determining (401) from a lateral surface (203) (in a starting position parallel to an XZ plane of the vehicle (100) at a lateral distance from a central X-axis (104) of the vehicle 100) runs being the lateral distance from a maximum width (202) of the vehicle (100) depends. Moreover, the method (400) comprises determining (402) from a rotational axis for the lateral surface (203) which extends parallel to a Z-axis (105) of the vehicle (100) and which through the viewing reference point (204) extends. Furthermore, the method (400) comprises determining (403) from an intersection (207, 217, 227) which, starting rotated from the initial position about the rotational axis, the lateral surface (206, 216) with the outer skin of the vehicle (100). Moreover, the method (400) comprises determining (404) the position for the camera on the basis of the intersection (207, 217, 227).
