TECHNOLOGY REPORT
it can block the sun even when the car
is off. And unlike the windows on the
Boeing 787, which use a gel squeezed
between two panels of glass, the sunroof
employs a dimmable film that can
darken completely. The idea is to help
occupants of cars equipped with expansive
sunroofs to stay cool while reducing
energy use for air conditioning.
Driver monitoring and
HomeLink
With regulatory bodies, including the
European Union, mandating driver-monitoring
systems (DMS) in new vehicles,
Gentex showcased its mirror-integrated
solution. Designed to track head position,
eye movement and other metrics,
the system can detect signs of fatigue,
distraction or health emergencies.
Gentex's DMS integrates monitoring
capabilities throughout the cabin. Using
the same mirror-mounted sensors, the
system can detect passengers, identify
objects and even measure an occupant's
vital signs. Integration into the
rearview mirror offers automakers a
space-saving option that aligns with
evolving safety standards, particularly
those tied to NCAP ratings.
