How does car camera top view work?

355 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?

This is called a Birds Eye view camera. It is created by using perspective transformations (math) while stitching camera pixels together from different cameras.
