Presentation on rear vision systems for pedestrian protection.

Proposal to clarify that overlays may only be used to convey “safety-related rearward vision information.” The proposal addresses confusion regarding circumstances under which the provision of information through overlays is permissible. The proposal also amends the French text. The overall proposal aims to make clear that overlays may convey safety information regarding the rearward environment of the vehicle and are not necessarily limited only to when the vehicle is moving in reverse. The proposal also aims to restrict the information to rear-vision safety. Other information, not related to the rear view, should never appear within the defined field of view. The proposal also corrects the omission of Class VII devices from the communication form described under Annex 3 of the regulation, as previously adopted for Revisions 5 and 6.

Proposal as amended following GRSG discussions to clarify the camera monitor provisions with regard to the use of image overlays. The current English text can be interpreted to allow overlays only when the vehicle is moving in reverse. In particular, this resulted in an unambiguous translation into French allowing overlays only when the vehicle is in reverse gear. The original intent was to limit overlays to rear views of the vehicle regardless of the moving vehicle direction. Therefore, this proposal clarifies the English and French texts.

WP.29 adoption of the new IWVTA regulation (UN Regulation No. 0) is anticipated for March 2017 with an entry-into-force the following October. This initial regulation (00 series of amendments) will include UN Regulations as they stand prior to September 2, 2017. However, a number of these regulations contain transitional provisions such that new versions will enter into force during the 12 months following this cut-off date. Therefore, this document (updated from the earlier version) proposes a list of such regulations that would be included in the 01 series of amendments to UN R0 to be submitted for adoption by WP.29 in November 2017. In concept, UN R0 would be updated with these “upgraded” versions of the UN Regulations.
