ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for monitoring the immediate surroundings of a vehicle displays on a display within the vehicle cabin a captured image of the vehicle immediate surroundings captured by a camera mounted on a back door which can open and close. The apparatus determines whether the back door is open based on a signal output from a back door courtesy switch. If it is determined that the back door is open, a written notification that the back door is open is superimposed on the display showing the captured image from the camera. If it is determined that the back door is not open, the written notification is not shown.
