I came across this video a while back. It looks like a bit of work to set up, but if you were in the habit of dropping the camper often it could be a way to go. I liked the ingenuity.
Our new truck has a back up camera for the bed which makes loading pretty easy.
Laser guide
I use this method. It's difficult to do in full sunlight. Instead of a permanent mount for the laser in the cab, I glued an old hard drive magnet to the laser, put some felt on the bottom and I just stick it to the top of the cab, align the laser with reflective tape that I have stuck and marked on the bed.
The biggest problem is remembering to fetch the laser when I'm done.
The other thing I do is align the truck before I raise the jacks. It's easier to see the reflective tape on the TC and it's easier on my nerves.
