Abstract:
A vehicular control system includes a camera having an exterior field of view at least rearward of the vehicle and operable to capture image data. A trailer is attached to the vehicle and image data captured by the camera includes image data captured when the vehicle is maneuvered with the trailer at an angle relative to the vehicle. The vehicular control system determines a path of the trailer responsive at least to a steering angle of the vehicle. The vehicular control system detects an object present exterior of the vehicle during maneuvering of the vehicle and the trailer and based at least in part on image processing of captured image data. The vehicular control system plans a driving path for the vehicle that avoids the detected object so that the vehicle and the trailer do not run over or contact the detected object.

Claim (Index 24):
A vehicular control system, said vehicular control system comprising:\n a camera disposed at a vehicle, said camera having a field of view exterior of the vehicle; wherein a trailer is attached to the vehicle; wherein said vehicular control system stores properties of the trailer in a data file that is accessed when that trailer is attached to the vehicle; wherein, during maneuvering of the vehicle and the trailer, said camera captures image data; an image processor operable that processes image data captured by said camera; wherein image data captured by said camera during maneuvering of the vehicle and the trailer includes image data captured by said camera when the vehicle is maneuvered with the trailer at an angle relative to the vehicle; wherein said vehicular control system determines a path of the trailer responsive at least in part to a steering angle of the vehicle; wherein said vehicular control system detects an object present exterior of the vehicle which ought not be impacted during maneuvering of the vehicle and the trailer; wherein said vehicular control system detects the object which ought not be impacted during maneuvering of the vehicle and the trailer based at least in part on image processing by said image processor of image data captured by said camera; wherein, responsive at least in part to detection of the object present exterior of the vehicle which ought not be impacted during maneuvering of the vehicle and the trailer, said vehicular control system plans a driving path for the vehicle and the trailer that avoids the detected object so that the vehicle and the trailer do not run over or contact the detected object; and wherein said vehicular control system displays, at a display screen of the vehicle, images derived from image data captured by said camera, and wherein an overlay overlaid over the displayed images indicates a steering path for the vehicle that maneuvers the vehicle and the trailer around the determined obstacle.
