The leisure vehicle industry has long trailed the main automotive sector in regards to driver assistance technologies, despite one-sided accidents at low speed being a common occurrence in the industry. This thesis describes the process of designing a wireless 360° camera sensing system in an attempt to catch up this leisure vehicle market to present automotive technology. Such systems can be found in many modern vehicles, however these systems are all wired implementations with there being no need for a wireless solution. The design emphasizes quick and straightforward calibration to facilitate usage as an aftermarket product. A prototype is built using Raspberry Pi's to demonstrate the feasibility of the design. This paper also presents research on possible further improvements of the designed system, and it presents a concept of a composite system through integration with a proximity sensing system.
