An in-depth treatment if given of problems of rear vision of passenger and commercial vehicles. The document reviews the state-of-the-art and reports on a questionnaire and interviews of experts in the field. It presents empirical data on the location and duration of eye fixations for obtaining rearward information for various vehicle-mirror combinations. It analyzes and discusses rear field of view, rear view display location, and other factors in motor vehicle rear vision. It recommends techniques for describing motor vehicle rear view performance, discusses the safety standards problem, and concludes with a proposed motor vehicle rear vision safety standard requiring that blind spots be eliminated for both passenger and commercial vehicles, and that rear view displays be prevented from occluding important areas of the forward scene. Abstracts are given for most prior research in the field. (Author)
