Auto dimming rear view mirrors are one of the most important car accessories that eliminate glare and enable driver to stay focused on the road and drive safely. The headlight glare in rear view mirror, coming from the vehicles behind, distracts driver’s attention, and it can be more dangerous on dark highways. Both the interior and exterior rear view mirrors are affixed at the top of the windshield and each side of doors, respectively.
How it works?
These mirrors have an advanced sensor that spots low ambient lights, coming from headlights of the car, moving behind, and instruct the rear-view sensor to control or eliminate glare. The mirror gets dark, automatically, in ratio of the brightness of glare.
Technology
The auto dimming technology, electrochromics, tints glass by applying low-voltage electricity from a power source. An electrochromic gel, applied between pieces of glass with an electrically conductive coating, coveys the released electricity. This technology is also used for developing ‘smart windows’.
There are different types of auto dimming mirrors such as no blind spot mirror, panoramic RVM, rear-view mirrors with temperature and compass display, garage door opener, audio driver interface and headlight control sensors. Various retailers and online websites offer the best quality car accessories in India.
