Multi-View Rear Camera System: Overview

WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 7 other vehicles, including the 2017 Honda Odyssey, 2016 Honda Odyssey, 2015 Honda Odyssey, 2014 Honda Odyssey, and 2013 Honda Odyssey. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

The multi-view rear camera system is a functionality that provides three different view images of the rearview camera to the navigation display unit, and can be changed by user operation. The guiding lines are different according to the view mode difference. The rearview camera is connected directly to the navigation display instead of the audio-navigation unit to improve the time for the rearview image to appear on the display.

Normal View Mode
The display shows the basic view.
Wide View Mode
The display shows wider visibility than the normal view, which helps the driver confirm any objects approaching from right and left.
Top Down View Mode
The display shows the view from the top angle of the vehicle, which helps the driver confirm the distance from any object behind.
