Abstract

An apparatus comprising a sensor and a processor. The sensor may be configured to generate a first video signal based on a targeted view from a vehicle. The processor may be configured to classify objects detected in the first video signal. The processor may be configured to generate a second video signal in response to (i) the classified objects and (ii) the first video signal. The second video signal may present a field of view configured to fit a shape of a display emulating a reflective view from a mirror. The second video signal may present a modified group of pixels of the first video signal to mask a flickering effect of the classified objects present in the first video signal when viewing the second video signal on the display.
