How does car camera top view work?

357 viewsOtherTechnology

I was in an Uber that had front / back cameras. It also showed a top view of the car in real time. You could see other cars moving next to us. How is this done? The top view was too high to be a top mounted cam. My only explanation is that it takes the view from other cameras and creates a top view and the top view of the car is just a graphic with other data added. How does this work?

Yes, the image of the car is simply a graphic that is superimposed on the combined images from the side, front and back cameras. I own a black Hyundai Santa Fe and the image on my overhead view is a white/grey vehicle.
