The happening rate of traffic accidents is the critical benchmark of traffic improvement for the Ministry of Communications. Even the government officials constantly urge the drivers not to drunk driving, or over speed driving, the happening rate still cannot be decreased largely. Most of accidents are made by the careless or ignorant driving habits. With the evolution of driving safety technology, the driving assistance system helps drivers to avoid the collision and lower the happening rate of accidents. Among these driving safety technologies, collision detection system is well-known one. It can detect not only any object around the vehicle, but also notify the drivers to stop passively or stop the vehicle actively. One major function of the collision detection system is used to eliminate the blind spots for the drivers. Some blind spots are generated by the rigid structure of vehicle which is designed to protect the inside passengers and not allowed to change. Fortunately, with the evolution of Augmented Reality and the lower manufacturing cost of video equipment, Driving Lens is targeted to eliminate the blind spots for the drivers. Currently, there are still some limitations about the existing products such as the around view monitor or rear view monitor. In order to improve the driving safety and enhance the driving experience, Driving Lens will offer different customized solutions for the driver such as 180 degree front view without the blind spots behind the pillars, and these solutions won’t be limited by the specific auto brand or vehicle model.
