FOREWORD

1) The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising

all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of IEC is to promote international

co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To this end and

in addition to other activities, IEC publishes International Standards, Technical Specifications, Technical Reports,

Publicly Available Specifications (PAS) and Guides (hereafter referred to as “IEC Publication(s)”). Their

preparation is entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested in the subject dealt with

may participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non-governmental organizations liaising

with the IEC also participate in this preparation. IEC collaborates closely with the International Organization for

Standardization (ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by agreement between the two organizations.

2) The formal decisions or agreements of IEC on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, an international

consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representation from all

interested IEC National Committees.

3) IEC Publications have the form of recommendations for international use and are accepted by IEC National

Committees in that sense. While all reasonable efforts are made to ensure that the technical content of IEC

Publications is accurate, IEC cannot be held responsible for the way in which they are used or for any

misinterpretation by any end user.

4) In order to promote international uniformity, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC Publications

transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional publications. Any divergence between

any IEC Publication and the corresponding national or regional publication shall be clearly indicated in the latter.

5) IEC itself does not provide any attestation of conformity. Independent certification bodies provide conformity

assessment services and, in some areas, access to IEC marks of conformity. IEC is not responsible for any

services carried out by independent certification bodies.

6) All users should ensure that they have the latest edition of this publication.

7) No liability shall attach to IEC or its directors, employees, servants or agents including individual experts and

members of its technical committees and IEC National Committees for any personal injury, property damage or

other damage of any nature whatsoever, whether direct or indirect, or for costs (including legal fees) and

expenses arising out of the publication, use of, or reliance upon, this IEC Publication or any other IEC

Publications.

8) Attention is drawn to the Normative references cited in this publication. Use of the referenced publications is

indispensable for the correct application of this publication.

9) Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this IEC Publication may be the subject of patent

rights. IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.

IEC 63033-1 has been prepared by technical area 17: Multimedia systems and equipment for

vehicles, of IEC technical committee 100: Audio, video and multimedia systems and equipment.

INTRODUCTION

The purpose of this document is to specify the model for generating the surrounding visual

image of the surround view system, which provides drivers with an image of the car's

surroundings. The surround view system is characterised by audio-visual monitoring and

recording, which is part of the car's multimedia equipment.

When manoeuvring, the driver relies on the images provided by the rear-view monitor for

parking assistance, the blind spot monitor for displaying views of the blind spots at intersections

with poor visibility, and the bird's-eye view monitor. But each surround view system provides a

different viewpoint to the driver. It's a heavy burden for a car driver to switch between these

systems and quickly recognize the multiple fields of view. And the fields of view are limited to

these camera systems, and they cannot freely change the viewpoint depending on the driving

situation. Thus, the usage range of these systems is limited to such manoeuvres as parking

assistance. Furthermore, on commercial vehicles such as trucks and buses, and special

vehicles such as construction machinery and agricultural machinery, the usage range of these

systems is even more limited. Nobody can assist drivers of large vehicles in ensuring the car's

correct position.

With a surround view system, it is possible to quickly ensure the car's proper positioning in

various driving situations. And not only for passenger cars, but good positioning can also be

quickly ensured for commercial vehicles and special vehicles.

This document specifies the model for generating the surrounding visual image of the surround

view system. IEC 63033-2 specifies the information sets that are provided by the surround view

system, and recording methods for that information and visual images. IEC 63033-3 specifies

the measurement methods of surrounding visual images for the surround view system.

4 System model
4.1 General

The system model of the surround view system is described in Figure 1. Cameras, which are

mounted on the outside of the car, capture the visual image of the area surrounding the car and

these visual data are projected onto a 3D projection surface. The visual image can then be

displayed as a composite image. The images can be rendered from various viewpoints with the

parameters for capture. The number of cameras required on vehicles other than automobiles

can be more than four depending on the size and shape of the car. This model defines a system

with four cameras for general application. The number of cameras actually used for each

composite image changes depending on the viewpoint. The mounting positions and angles for

the four cameras should be calibrated in accordance with the data described in 4.2 and 4.3.

See Annex D for information about display attributes and Annex E for information about the

reactivity of the system.
Figure 1 – System model for surround view system
4.2 Number of cameras and camera field of view

The horizontal angle of view of the camera is described in Figure 2. Overlapping areas and

blind spots on the horizontal field of view change depending on the number of cameras and the

horizontal angle of view of the camera. Overlapping areas should be wide for getting better

composite views. The number of cameras and the horizontal angle of view of the camera shall

be determined to ensure that there are no blind spots.

The vertical angle of view and the tilt angle ψ of the front camera and the vertical angle of

Front

view and the tilt angle ψ of the rear camera are described in Figure 3. The blind spot of the

Rear

vertical field of view changes depending on the vertical angle of view of the camera and the tilt

angle ψ. The vertical angle of view of the camera and the tilt angle ψ shall be chosen to ensure

that no blind spots are generated. The details are described in Annex A.

4.3 Method for projecting visual image to 3D projection surface

Following the right-handed coordinate system, the length of the car is the Y axis, the width

car

direction of the car is X axis, and the direction of the height of the car is the Z axis. The

car car

projection surface of the camera video image is Z = 0, the road surface. The 3D projection

surface that shall be used is shown in Figure 4. Projecting to a 3D projection surface is

described in Figure 5. The 3D projection surface should cover the 3D surface as the polygon

model is similar to a polyhedron. The coordinate P of the one point of the 3D projection surface

is converted to the coordinate P according to the camera's coordinate system based on the

origin of the optics of the car's cameras. This coordinate conversion is defined as:

PM ×P
C VC→ V
---------------------- Page: 11 ----------------------
– 10 – IEC 63033-1:2022 © IEC 2022

M is the coordinate conversion matrix to the car's coordinate system, which is determined

V→C

by the camera's mounting position and the angle. The incident vector V when the car's camera

photographs the subject at position P is defined as:
V=−

The coordinates of the car's camera image record the subject of incident vector V calculated

by the internal parameter of the car's camera. Projecting the car's cameras to a 3D projection

surface is realized by arranging the pixels of four cameras with the relations mentioned above.

Figure 5 – Projecting to 3D projection surface
4.4 Visualizing the projection image at free eye point

The polygon model constituting the 3D projection surface can be visualized from any virtual eye

point. Visualizing the polygon model uses 3D computer graphics technology. The texture image

is the car's camera image updated at the system's video rate. The wrap-around view image is

composed by performing the polygon rendering and the texture coordinate is the car's camera

image coordinate that corresponds to the top of the polygon.
4.5 Free eye point capability

The parameters of the eye point, direction and field of view of the virtual camera are freely

changed during polygon rendering. The eye point can be changed by changing the parameters

of the virtual cameras, the car's surroundings and the driving situation for the same 3D

projection surface. The animated image tied between individual eye points is smoothly adjusted

by changing these parameters continually.
5 Camera configuration
5.1 Camera

The lens of the camera should be isotropic and have a rotary symmetric distortion characteristic

in an optical axis. The details are described in Annex B.
5.2 Lens distortion data
5.2.1 General

Lens distortion data should be used during calibration. Lens distortion data should be arranged

according to the coordinate data of the height of the real image corresponding to the incidence

angle value in ascending order. The type of lens distortion data is either of rotationally

symmetric lenses or of non-rotationally symmetric lenses.

5.2.2 Distortion data of rotationally symmetric lens

Distortion data of rotationally symmetric lenses is described in Figure 6. It is composed of the

angles of incidence a and a between the optical axis's centre and their distances d and d

1 2 1 2

from the centre. The distortion data format of a rotationally symmetric lens is described in

Figure 7.

5.2.3 Distortion data of non-rotationally symmetric lens

Distortion data of non-rotationally symmetric lenses is described in Figure 8. It is composed of

an angle of incidence (pan angle and tilt angle) and the location (x,y) on the imaging element.

The distortion data format of a non-rotationally symmetric lens is described in Figure 9.

Figure 9 – Distortion data format of a non-rotationally symmetric lens
5.3 Optical axis shift data

Optical axis shift data should be used at calibration. Optical axis shift includes optical axis shift

of camera, shift by AD or DA conversion, and shift from the ideal captured image. The optical

axis shift adjusts the shift from the central coordinates and the captured image's width and

height as an input. Optical shift data that should be matched
