1. A method for producing a single image from data collected in a plurality of images captured by an optical system to simulate a mirror used as a rear-view mirror of a vehicle, the method comprising:
identifying primary edges of a first image of the plurality of images;
locating a first border within the first image that extends to part of a first edge of the first image;
identifying secondary edges of a second image of the plurality of images;
selecting a second edge from the secondary edges closest in position and orientation to the part of the first edge of the first image;
locating a second border within the second image that extends to the second edge; and
adjusting the second image such that a second part of the second border of the second image aligns with the first border of the first image,
wherein the optical system simultaneously simulates both a plane mirror and a spotter mirror in form of a spherical mirror in the single image to provide a plurality of optical subsystems.
