A wide angle imaging system for providing a wide angle field of view of an area
exteriorly of a vehicle includes an image capture device having a field of view
directed exteriorly of the vehicle, an outer wide angle lens, a focusing lens and
a display. The image capture device may comprise an array of pixels and may have
a coarse distribution of pixels and a fine distribution of pixels. The display
may be operable to display a substantially undistorted image to the driver or occupant
of the vehicle in response to a signal output of the image capture device.
