  Cameras are the primary sensor in automated driving systems. They provide
high information density and are optimal for detecting road infrastructure cues
laid out for human vision. Surround-view camera systems typically comprise of
four fisheye cameras with 190{\deg}+ field of view covering the entire
360{\deg} around the vehicle focused on near-field sensing. They are the
principal sensors for low-speed, high accuracy, and close-range sensing
applications, such as automated parking, traffic jam assistance, and low-speed
emergency braking. In this work, we provide a detailed survey of such vision
systems, setting up the survey in the context of an architecture that can be
decomposed into four modular components namely Recognition, Reconstruction,
Relocalization, and Reorganization. We jointly call this the 4R Architecture.
We discuss how each component accomplishes a specific aspect and provide a
positional argument that they can be synergized to form a complete perception
system for low-speed automation. We support this argument by presenting results
from previous works and by presenting architecture proposals for such a system.
