Abstract
A system and method is provided for electronically viewing behind a vehicle. Included in the invention is the step of coupling a camera to a vehicular mounting unit. The camera is coupled to the vehicular mounting unit so that a plane defined by a boundary of an angle of view of the camera is substantially parallel to a plane defined by a mounting surface of the vehicular mounting unit. The vehicular mounting unit can be affixed to a rear panel of a vehicle in a manner that allows the camera to capture a video image of an area that substantially spans at least a width of the vehicle in an area immediately behind a back portion of the vehicle. The present invention also includes the step of transmitting the video image to a video display that is viewable by a driver of the vehicle.
