More angles are captured with this method, and it works in tandem with the old fashioned mirror method for the complicated task of driving in reverse with a large trailer attached. Watch a demonstration of this system below.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3>Reverse Trailer Guidance cameras on Ford trucks<\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The 2017 Super Duty lineup will offer up to seven cameras. The core group of cameras will function as follows:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">A tailgate camera will track the motion of a conventional trailer to help coach drivers while backing up.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">A center high-mounted stop lamp camera will show a view of the cargo box with a dynamic guideline.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Two side-view cameras will shift the view of the trailer when the angle of it changes as it is being backed into place.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">A factory-available camera will be available for the customer to place at the back of a trailer to help visibility.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Ford also has two patents pending in regards to the Reverse Trailer Guidance system: a dynamic steering wheel icon and a dual-purpose camera package. This system is not a substitute for safe driving and the use of mirrors to back a trailer into place, however, it is expected to offer a great deal of further assistance to drivers.
