NISSAN Around View Monitor
AVM uses a series of small cameras located on the exterior of the vehicle to make parking
and manoeuvring as safe as possible by giving the driver a real-time bird's eye view
of the environment around the car
In a word : there are 4 super-wide angle/high resolution cameras that create a clear image
after conversion to show the virtual image
One in the front, another in the rear and one beneath each side mirror as shown
The system converts image data taken by the 4 cameras to display a virtual image
of the vehicle from above as if there is a Helicopter filming your car
More usually found on luxury cars like INFINITY , but now it's in QASHQAI 2012
