摘要：The invention relates to a method and system for improving the monitoring of

the external environment of a motor vehicle. According to the invention, the vehicle (1)comprises a built-in system for detecting objects with which it is susceptible to collide,within a surveillance area (A) covering a blind spot, comprising a capturing device foracquiring images that are representative of one or more objects (2) located within saidarea (A) and an electronic system for processing and analyzing input signals. The inventivemethod comprises the automatic activation of an infrared light source to emit infraredlight towards the surveillance area (A) when the images acquired don't make possible aprocessing and an analysis providing a result that would reliably detect a determinedobject (2), and the automatic deactivation of said infrared light source when the acquiredimages produce a correct result without the need for infrared light. In addition, thesystem comprises a module with an infrared light source.
