I have been working with installing a rear view camera on a skid steer. I am trying to go cheap. My monitor is a Pyle PLHRQD9B. That is a 9" TFT LCD monitor. It allows both NTSC and PAL inputs and the aspect ratio is switchable between 16:9 and 4:3. It is described as having a resolution of 640 horizontal and 234 vertical. I am not quite sure what those metrics mean. There are no adjustments for centering such as exist on my PC monitor.
The problem I am having is the field of view (FOV) is not centered on the optical axis of the camera. The camera is a an inexpensive "typical" CCD from China. The FOV is supposed to be 130°. I suspect the width of the scan from the camera is different than the monitor width and the image is getting clipped on one side. That makes it difficult to back into the center between open doors. The clipping is camera right side, monitor left side because of the mirroring.
Is there a box made that can adjust the clipping to give a centered image? What is the box called?
All searches I have done for image centering have returned either loads of stuff on HTML image centering or video games.
Regards,
John
