Zusammenfassung:	Methods and systems for assisting a driver when coupling a vehicle to a trailer. One method includes (a) obtaining image data of an area to the rear of the vehicle, (b) identifying at least a portion of the trailer based on the image data, (c) determining a distance between the vehicle and the identified portion of the trailer, (d) determining a perspective based on the determined distance, (e) generating, with a controller included in the vehicle, a view of the trailer based on the image data, the view having the determined perspective, and (f) displaying the generated view. The method also includes (g) repeating (c) through (f) as the vehicle nears the trailer, wherein the determined perspective changes as the vehicle gets closer to the trailer.
