- the fourth image sensor 5 captures a second zone situated laterally with respect to the vehicle 1, here to the left of the vehicle 1.
- These image sensors 5 are here cameras. These cameras can be analog or digital.

- center C of the vehicle 1 is also possible to define the center C of the vehicle 1 as the point situated halfway between the vehicle 1 in the longitudinal direction, in the transverse direction and in the vertical direction of the vehicle 1.
- the calculation unit 9 of the vehicle 1 is able to receive the actual images acquired by the image sensors 5. It is furthermore programmed to compose a virtual image 13 of the environment of the vehicle 1 from the actual images acquired by the image sensors 5. Such a virtual image 13 is illustrated in FIG. 2b.
- the computing unit 9 is programmed to compose a virtual image 13 of the environment of the vehicle 1 as seen by a virtual camera 1 1 located at a distance from the vehicle 1.
- the virtual camera 11 is visible for example on Figure 2a.
- the virtual camera 1 1 is located above the vehicle 1. It will be noted that the virtual camera 11 does not exist in the real world: it is only a concept making it easier to understand the invention, which consists in composing a virtual image 13 corresponding to an image real as it would be captured by an actual camera if this actual camera was placed in the position of the virtual camera 11.
- FIG. 2b illustrates the virtual image 13 as seen by the virtual camera 11.
- the virtual image 13 comprises a representation 15 of the vehicle 1, viewed from above, as well as the reconstituted environment 17 of the vehicle 1 seen under the same angle.
- the optical axis Ao of the virtual camera 11 is chosen to pass through a fixed point of the vehicle 1, regardless of the position of the virtual camera 11.
- the fixed point is for example the center C of the vehicle 1.
- Figure 3a shows some parameters of the virtual camera 11.
- the virtual camera 11 thus has a focal length f and a focal plane PF.
- the focal plane PF has a width Cx and a height Cy.
- the virtual camera further has a horizontal resolution Resh and a vertical resolution Resv.
- the virtual camera 1 1 has a posture, that is to say a position and an orientation, which is marked by coordinates expressed in the vehicle reference (0, Xv, Yv, Zv). Coordinates of the virtual camera 1 1 comprise a first coordinate X Cam defined along the axis (OXv), a second coordinate Ycam defined along the axis (OYv), and a third coordinate -icam defined along the axis (OZv).

- the first posture parameter is the orientation angle ⁇ of the virtual camera 11.
- a first graphical element 19, shown in FIG. 4a, is associated with this first posture parameter.
- This first graphic element 19 comprises a first circle C1 of radius R1 centered on the center C.
- the first circle C1 is located in the plane (XvYv).
- the value of the first radius R1 is determined so that the first circle C1 encircles the representation 15 of the vehicle 1.
- the first radius R1 is for example equal to 2.5 m.
- the first graphic element 19 is stored in a memory unit, from which it can be retrieved by the computing unit 9 which is able to transmit it to the touch screen 7.
- the second posture parameter is the third coordinate Zcam which is reminded that it represents a vertical distance between the vehicle 1 and the virtual camera 11.
- This third Zcam coordinate has a range of values that is preset and is stored in the memory unit.
- the value range is for example a function of the resolution offered by the image sensors 5 and by the screen Touch 7. Indeed, if the virtual camera 11 is placed too high, the objects present on the virtual image 13 will be too small to be recognizable or even visible by the user. Such a virtual image 13 could therefore not help the driver to maneuver the vehicle 1.
- the third coordinate Zcam is for example between 1, 7 m and 3 m and can vary in steps of 5 cm.
- the third coordinate Zcam is associated with the angle of inclination ⁇ of the virtual camera 1 1, since the optical axis A 0 is defined as passing through the center C of the vehicle 1.

- the second radius R2 is within a predefined range of values and stored in the memory unit.
- the second radius R2 is for example between 3.5 m and 6 m, it can be varied in steps of 5 cm.
- a third graphic element 23 is associated with this third posture parameter.
- This third graphic element 23 is here formed by a horizontal segment. By pressing this third graphic element 23, the user will be able to vary the second radius R2.
- the third graphic element 23 is stored in the memory unit, from which it can be recovered by the computing unit 9 which is able to transmit it to the touch screen 7.
- the first, second and third posture parameters 19, 21, 23 allow the calculation unit 9 to calculate coordinates (Xcam, Ycam, Zcam, ⁇ , ⁇ ) of the virtual camera 11 in the vehicle coordinate system (0, Xv , Yv, Zv).
- the virtual camera 11 is able to be moved by the user around the representation of the vehicle 1, which causes a change in his
- the computing unit 9 is able to recover or generate a representation of the vehicle 1 as seen by the virtual camera 11.
- a three-dimensional model of the vehicle could be stored in a memory unit of the driver assistance system 3.
- a plurality of representations of the vehicle 1 is stored in a memory unit of the driver assistance system 3.
- the plurality of representations 15 is for example made from a simulation tool of the vehicle 1. For example 360 images are captured in perspective around the vehicle 1, in steps of 1 degree and remaining at a first value of the second radius R2 . Then, this operation is repeated by moving to a second value of the second radius R2.
- the second radius R2 is for example varied in millimeters.
- images of the vehicle 1 are captured by varying the third coordinate Zcam, and thus the angle of inclination ⁇ of the virtual camera 11.
- Each captured image is named with its orientation angle value ⁇ , its second radius value R2 and its angle of inclination ⁇ value, so the calculation unit 9 can easily retrieve the appropriate representation 15 for each posture of the virtual camera January 1.
- the calculation unit 9 is furthermore capable of superimposing the appropriate representation of the vehicle 1 on the reconstituted image of the environment 17 to form the virtual image 13 as seen by the virtual camera 11.

- the touch screen 7 is placed in the passenger compartment of the vehicle 1, for example on the dashboard of the latter.
- the touch screen 7 is able to display the virtual image 13 as well as the graphic elements 19, 21, 23 transmitted by the calculation unit 9.

- the touch screen 7 is furthermore able to acquire the position of a selected point P by the occasional support of a user on said touch screen 7.
- a screen mark (0e, Ye, Ze) is associated with the touch screen 7.
- the origin 0e of the screen mark (Oe, Ye, Ze) is for example located on a corner of the touch screen 7, for example the lower left corner.
- the axis (OeYe) extends along a horizontal axis of the touch screen 7.
- the axis (OeZe) extends along a vertical axis of the touch screen 7.

- the touch screen 7 displays for example the first graphic element 19 associated with the first posture parameter (the orientation angle ⁇ ).
- the choice by the user of the posture of the virtual camera 1 1, and therefore the virtual view of the environment is facilitated. Indeed, the user quickly understands at which locations he can place the virtual camera 1 1. The choice of the location of the virtual camera 1 1 does not require great attention since a single point support with the finger is enough, and user can focus on the maneuvers he is doing.
- the touch screen 7 may further display instructions to the user. These instructions can explain to him how to select the location of the virtual camera 11.
