How to Use Rearview Mirrors for Reversing?

[Barros]

First, adjust the rearview mirror properly, then proceed to adjust the side mirrors until the optimal balance between visible width and distance is achieved. After adjusting the seat, check the rearview mirror until you have a complete view of the rear. More details are as follows: 1. Reversing with Rearview Mirrors: Rearview mirrors are one of the crucial safety components on a vehicle, used to observe the road conditions behind during reversing and to monitor the surroundings while driving. 2. Anti-glare Rearview Mirrors: Vehicles are typically equipped with anti-glare rearview mirrors, which consist of a special mirror, two photodiodes, and an electronic controller. The electronic controller receives signals from the photodiodes for both front and rear light. If the light shines on the interior rearview mirror and the rear light is stronger than the front light, the electronic controller will output a voltage to the conductive layer. 3. Conductive Layer Voltage: This voltage alters the color of the mirror's electrochromic layer. The higher the voltage, the darker the electrochromic layer becomes. Even if strong light hits the rearview mirror, the anti-glare feature ensures that only dim light is reflected into the driver's eyes, preventing glare.
