The automatic-dimming inside mirror relieves drivers from enduring the full glare of headlights from vehicles behind them through the use of two sensors attached to the mirror: a forward-facing light detection sensor, which detects the lighting conditions surrounding the vehicle; and the rear light detection sensor, which detects the light that strikes the inside mirror from behind the vehicle. During nighttime driving, if a difference in intensity exists between the surrounding light and the light reflected off the inside mirror, the auto-dimming feature automatically reduces the reflection rate of the inside mirror to dampen the glare and improve the driver's rear view.
