Moisture detection display device for vehicle exterior mirrors
The patent US12044645B2 describes a display device designed for the exterior mirrors of motor vehicles, which integrates a moisture detection system. The device features at least one display means that generates visual signals for the driver while also emitting light to detect moisture on its surface. This is achieved through a combination of a lighting means that emits light across a specific wavelength spectrum and a moisture detection apparatus equipped with sensors. The system is capable of distinguishing between light absorbed and re-emitted by moisture, allowing it to identify the presence of moisture based on the differences in the wavelength spectrum. The design includes various functionalities, such as the ability to display signals from systems like blind spot assistance and travel direction indicators.
Additionally, the display device incorporates advanced features such as a dark chamber for the moisture detection apparatus, which may include filters to adjust the light spectrum and enhance detection accuracy. The device can also integrate capacitive sensors for moisture detection and control mechanisms to activate moisture removal devices, such as heating or cleaning systems. The exterior mirror can be equipped with multiple display devices that work in conjunction to improve moisture detection capabilities. Overall, the invention aims to enhance driver safety and visibility by providing real-time information about moisture conditions on the mirror surface.
