Automatic anti-dazzle interior mirror: functioning |
The interior automatic anti-dazzle rear-view mirror darkens progressively when the driver is dazzled from behind |
This rear view mirror consists of a mirror and an electronic component with two photosensors. |
Through the photo sensors, the electronic device detects inciding light from the front and rear |
If the inciding light from the rear is greater than that from the front, a current is applied to the conductive layer |
The current modifies the colour of the electrolyte. The greater the current, the darker the electrolyte layer. The incident light is not reflected as brightly |
On engaging reverse gear the anti-dazzle function is switched off. Thus one can leave a dark garage, for example, driving in reverse and using the interior rear-view mirror |
