Abstract

A method for designing rear view mirrors 3,5 for a motor vehicle 1 comprises providing a virtual 3D model of the vehicle (vehicle model) and a virtual 3D model of the rear view mirror (mirror model), the mirror having a reflection sur­face E, whereupon the mirror model is arranged on the vehicle model. A virtual 3D model of an environment 7 (environment model) comprising at least one de­fined field of view zone (e.g. F2, F4, F5) is generated. The vehicle model is merged with the environment model such that the field of view zone is adjacent to the model (as shown). The mirror model is checked and/or adjusted such that, when viewed from a virtual driverâ s eye positions (OD,OE, figure 1), the field of view zone (e.g. F2) is visible in a virtual reflection image I upon the mirror model. CAD techniques use photo-rendering and/or ray-tracing to calculate the virtual reflection image. The payload of the vehicle may be taken into account when providing the vehicle model. Adjustment of the mirror model is achieved by modifying the mirror radius/radii of curvature or size of the reflection surface E. By using CAD techniques to simulate and predict the rear mirror field of view, the method may reduce the cost and time required with building and testing physical prototypes of mirrors, whilst ensuring the necessary mirror parameters to meet regulations are established.
