    BIRD'S EYE VIEW CAMERA SYSTEM 5.1.1. ECU Installation Requirements Ventilation Install the ECU away from any sort of heat outlet, heater, or AC blower. Do not operate the ECU in a closed-in area or restrict ventilation in any way. The ECU requires air circulation to maintain optimum operating temperature and provide best performance.

    BIRD'S EYE VIEW CAMERA SYSTEM 8.2. Installing Side Cameras Below Mirrors All four cameras in the Seon package are the same, and require 150 degrees of unimpeded view from a parallel perspective of the vehicle. The view must not include side mirrors. This is critical in placing the cameras, as shadowing can occur if the camera image that would typically capture the ground is catching the protruding side mirrors, as in the case shown below.
  • Page 16: Selecting Symmetrical Side Camera Locations

    BIRD'S EYE VIEW CAMERA SYSTEM When working on a new vehicle for the first time, the cameras should be temporarily attached to the vehicle, and the side images examined to determine if the camera image can see the side mirrors. The rule of thumb is typically that the shorter a vehicle is, the lower the cameras may need to be to avoid the mirrors in the image.
  • Page 17: Under Mirror And Door Mount Option

    BIRD'S EYE VIEW CAMERA SYSTEM All four cameras must be mounted at the furthest point toward the outside of the vehicle body as possible while minimizing image capture of the vehicle itself or protruding equipment, to avoid shadowing. 8.2.2. Under Mirror and Door Mount Option While the under-mirror mount does appear to solve some shadowing issues created by body panel mounting, it is not for a novice installer.

    BIRD'S EYE VIEW CAMERA SYSTEM • The mirror must have adequate extra space inside the mirror housing. • The mirror must be flat on the bottom, and have enough surface area to allow for mounting the cover. A 1 1/8” (28mm) diameter hole is required to accommodate the camera.

    BIRD'S EYE VIEW CAMERA SYSTEM If the mirror does not pop free easily, do not force it. 3. Examine the mechanism further and consider if a different pry location might be better. 4. Once the glass has been detached, proceed to removing the interior door panel and the outside mirror housing.
  • Page 20 BIRD'S EYE VIEW CAMERA SYSTEM Typically this is done through the existing rubber door boot. While it is typically not easy to get extra wiring through this boot, it can usually be done. A more significant challenge often comes at the door side of the boot. Many domestic manufacturers have opted to install a Molex plug at this end.
