An embodiment of A-Pillar Video Monitor System is provided for a motor vehicle to permit the driver to view traffic conditions (e.g. running children, approaching cars, etc.) from sides of the vehicle. Left or right video cameras are mounted on the left sides or right sides of the motor vehicle. Each camera attachment has a miniature video camera viewing angle directed generally sides, and a housing or shroud that is in the form of an aerodynamic fairing disposed over the associated camera to protect the same and to minimize the amount of protuberance laterally from the side of the vehicle. The fairing also avoids unnecessary airflow turbulence, thereby streamlining the vehicle. The images viewed from these camera assemblies reproduced on a curved viewing screen or monitor, which is seamlessly integrated with A-Pillars of the vehicle. The driver can easily observe the conditions in all sides without having to divert his or her attention from the road ahead. In case of airbag activation, the curved monitor would opened to protect the driver and the airbag is deployed.
