Proposal for a new UN Regulation on the approval of devices for reversing motion and motor vehicles with regard to the driver’s awareness of vulnerable road users behind vehicles. The purpose of this Regulation is to provide the provisions for reversing motion concerning on awareness of vulnerable road users proximity. UN Regulation No. 46 provides provisions for indirect vision of motor vehicles. This Regulation expands driver’s vision or awareness for vehicle rear direction when in reversing motion. Therefore, some requirements of this Regulation may be satisfied by devices complying with UN Regulation No. 46.

Proposal to introduce provisions for activation of a “temporary modified view” (such as change in image magnification or resolution) per ISO 16505:2015 to complement the static Class II field of vision using a Camera Monitoring System (CMS).

Proposal to enable the use of small indicative lines to assist the driver in discriminating among two or more fields of vision rendered as a combined continuous image on a display.

Proposal to allow for the approval of optical reflecting mirrors being introduced to the market in addition to the current spherical product.

Presentation in support of the proposal in document GRSG-117-16.

Proposal to correct a typo: “Class II to IV VI exterior device”

Proposal to align requirements for conventional mirrors and camera-monitor systems. In the latest revision (where mirror and CMS provisions were split into separate sections), the phrase “including those parts remaining attached to the
support after the test provided for in paragraph 6.3.2. below” was omitted from the CMS section.
