A vehicular vision system includes a rear-viewing camera disposed at a vehicle and viewing at least rearward of the vehicle. Each frame of image data captured by the imaging array of the rear-viewing camera includes a plurality of grids, with each grid of the plurality of grids having a respective set of photosensing elements associated with respective rows and columns of photosensing elements. A electro-optic rearview mirror assembly includes an electro-optic mirror reflective element that is controlled responsive to an ambient light condition and a glare light condition. The ambient light condition is determined by processing at least one first grid of the plurality of grids of the frames of image data captured by the rear-viewing camera. The glare light condition is determined by processing at least one second grid of the plurality of grids of the frames of image data captured by the rear-viewing camera.

A motor vehicle having at least one rear-view mirror provided for use by the driver and having a reflecting mirror surface formed by a mirror material, in particular an interior mirror and/or an exterior mirror, and/or at least one passenger compartment window, in particular a windshield and/or a rear window and/or at least one side window, comprising a window material, in particular glass; the at least one rear-view mirror and/or the at least one passenger compartment window comprising a filter medium which absorbs light within at least one wavelength range and/or, in the case of the rear-view mirror which reflects said light in a different direction from light outside the wavelength range.

A rearview assembly for a vehicle includes a rearview device having at least one of a display module and a mirror. A mount operably couples the rearview device to an inside surface of a windscreen of the vehicle. An at least partially translucent connector is operably coupled with the vehicle and abuts a portion of the windscreen. The connector includes an induction pad removably coupled with the rearview device and is configured to supply power and data to the rearview device.

A mirror base, a mirror housing rotatable to the mirror base between a non-driving retracted position and a driving protracted position around an axis (X), a non-metallic spring for providing an axial spring force between the mirror base and the mirror housing whose force differs at least between the non-driving retracted and the driving protracted positions; and a first guide portion for contacting a first contact area of the non-metallic spring, and a second guide portion for contacting a second contact area of the non-metallic spring. The guide portions are configured such that, during rotation of the mirror housing to the mirror base, at least one deformable portion of the non-metallic spring between the first and second contact areas is deformed in a direction (Y) substantially perpendicular to the mirror rotation axis (X).

An anti-glare system for vehicles has a linear polarized filter mounted to a headlight of a vehicle with the positive side of the filter placed at a 135 degree angle relative to a horizontal line. A second linear polarized filter is mounted to a windshield of the vehicle with the negative side of the second filter placed at an angle of 45 degrees relative to a horizontal line. When vehicles equipped with this anti-glare system meet travelling in opposite directions, the polarized light emitted by the headlight of one vehicle is blocked by the filter installed in the windshield of the other vehicle. A third linear polarized filter may be mounted to rear and side view mirrors of the vehicle with the positive side of the third filter placed at an angle of 135 degrees relative to a horizontal line. When vehicles equipped with the anti-glare system meet travelling in the same direction, the polarized light emitted by the headlight of one vehicle is blocked by the filter installed in the rear or side view mirror of the other vehicle.

A display device may comprise a transmittance control structure having a variable transmittance and a mirror type display panel disposed on a rear surface of the transmittance control structure. The mirror type display panel may comprise a substrate, a display member disposed on the substrate, the display member including a light emission region, a first transmission region, and a peripheral region surrounding the light emission region and the first transmission region, and a reflective member facing the substrate with respect to the display member, the reflective member including an opening region corresponding to the light emission region, a second transmission region corresponding to the first transmission region, and a reflective region surrounding the opening region and the second transmission region.

An interior rearview mirror assembly for a vehicle includes a mirror-display assembly adapted to pivotally attach at an interior surface of the vehicle. The mirror-display assembly includes a mirror reflective element and a display device that has a display screen. The mirror reflective element is disposed at a mirror side of the mirror-display assembly and the display screen is disposed at a display side of the mirror-display assembly. The mirror-display assembly is pivotable between a mirror position and a display position. When the mirror-display assembly is in the mirror position, a driver of the vehicle views the mirror reflective element and does not view the display screen, and when the mirror-display assembly is in the display position, the driver of the vehicle views the display screen and does not view the mirror reflective element. The mirror-display assembly pivots about a pivot axis between the mirror position and the display position.

A method for assembling a vehicular camera includes providing a front camera housing, providing a rear camera housing, and providing a PCB. The rear camera housing includes a coaxial electrical connector and the PCB has inner and outer electrically conductive traces. The coaxial electrical includes inner and outer electrically conductive terminals. The rear camera housing is moved toward engagement with the front camera housing so that the terminals contact the traces. The rear camera housing is attached at the front camera housing so that the terminals remain in contact with the traces. After the rear camera housing is attached at the front camera housing, the terminals are in electrical connection with the traces at the PCB. The coaxial electrical connector includes a cable connecting end that is opposite the terminals and that is configured to electrically connect to a coaxial connector of a coaxial cable of a vehicle.

In the electrochromic device according to an embodiment of the present application, when the first voltage is applied to the electrochromic device in a state that the electrochromic element has the first state, the electrochromic device becomes the second state, and when the first voltage is applied to the electrochromic element in a state that the electrochromic element has the fourth state, the electrochromic element becomes the third state.
