An active-tracking vehicular-based system for generating an adaptive mirror-like image includes a position sensing module for determining the position of an observer relative to a virtual or physical observer surface, a gaze sensing module for determining the observer gaze direction relative to the observer surface, a virtual mirror surface, and a camera module for generating the adaptive image based upon the position and gaze direction determined respectively by the position sensing and gaze direction sensing modules, as the image would have been experienced by the observer with essentially complete view of the vehicle surroundings looking backwards with respect to the vehicle direction of motion. In particular, an active-tracking vehicular-based method for generating a mirror image includes (a) determining the position of an observer and observer gaze direction relative to a surface, (b) capturing at least one image, and (c) generating, from the at least one image, the mirror image as the mirror image would have been experienced by the observer if the virtual mirror surface had been a mirror.
