A video processor module for a vehicle includes a plurality of video interfaces, each configured for wired connection to a respective camera of a plurality of cameras. The video processor module receives and processes image data provided by the cameras. The plurality of interfaces include interfaces for wired connection to the cameras and for receiving image data from the cameras. The video processor module communicates with other vehicle systems via a vehicle bus. The video processor module may electronically reduce distortion in captured image data. The video processor module may merge captured image data to provide a panoramic view image that is output to a video display screen. The video processor module may receive radar data sensed by a radar sensor of the vehicle, and may, responsive at least in part to processing of image data and radar data, detect at least one other vehicle present exterior of the vehicle.
