Abstract

See full text

A mirror structure, for use as a rear view mirror, is shown as having a main viewing mirror portion and an auxiliary viewing mirror portion; when the mirror structure is adjusted so that a selected reference portion, of the vehicle which carries the mirror structure, is seen in the auxiliary viewing mirror portion, the main viewing mirror portion is simultaneously positioned to provide an enhanced view of existing traffic. In another form, the mirror is first positioned so that the selected reference portion of the vehicle is viewed therein, and then the mirror is rotated a preselected amount as to present a view further angularly displaced from the vehicle as to thereby provide an enhanced view of existing traffic. Electronic logic and power circuitry is shown enabling the main viewing mirror to be moved into an initial position whereby the selected reference portion of the vehicle is seen and then, upon actuation of a switch, causing the main viewing mirror to be swung laterally to provide an enhanced view of existing traffic.
