A visor device includes an optically transparent support frame and a visor arrangement. The visor arrangement has a plurality of light shading portions and a plurality of light transmitting portions alternating with the light shading portions. The light shading portions is capable of reducing glare from sunlight. The light transmitting portions is capable of enabling ambient light penetrating therethrough. The light shading portions of the visor arrangement is capable of substantially eliminating the glare from sunlight transmitted through the support frame to a user in the vehicle whereas the user is able to see through the support frame at the light transmitting portions to improve vision of the user.

A system and method for automatically calibrating the aiming direction of a camera onboard a vehicle. The method uses GPS and solar almanac data to estimate the location of the sun relative to the vehicle, and compares this to the solar position in an image from the camera. The comparison is performed with an ongoing recursive calculation which yields an improved estimate of the sun position relative to the vehicle, while simultaneously calibrating the aiming direction of the camera. The aiming calibration data is used to improve the accuracy of the camera's images as used for all of the camera's other functions.

The sunblocking device has an elongated blocking member having a portion that is folded back and attached to the elongated member to form an elongated opening. Extending through the opening is a strap that is preferably elastic that fits around a vehicle visor to secure the device to the visor.

An antidazzle apparatus for movable bodies is capable of not hiding something a user wants to see while dimming sunlight. A transmissive display is disposed above ahead of a driver, and two dimmer portions are formed in the transmissive display. The dimmer portions are positioned on straight lines linking the driver's right and left eyes with the sun, respectively, and are set to sizes a bit larger than the sizes of the pupils. In this case, sunlight is dimmed by the dimmer portions. Nevertheless, lines of sight leading to an entity which is located much closer than the sun is and which the driver wants to see are not intercepted by the dimmer portions. This allows the driver to see the entity.

A system for and method of harvesting, storing and converting naturally occurring energy, includes exposing an active material, and more preferably a shape memory element to an ambient activation signal or condition, harvesting a portion of the energy by pseudoplastically straining or superelastically deforming the element, storing the energy by causing a change in the element and/or engaging a locking mechanism, and converting the energy by exposing the mechanism to an activation signal and/or otherwise releasing the mechanism.

It is accordingly an object of the present invention to provide a sunvisor for a vehicle equipped with a photocatalyst with a deodorizing effect. In the present invention, a vehicle sunvisor has a visor body that is mounted to a cabin-ceiling surface via a support shaft. The visor body rotates around the support shaft and switches between a storage position, where it is positioned along the cabin-ceiling surface, and a light shielding position, where it is positioned along a glass surface. In addition, a deodorizing part equipped with a photocatalyst having a deodorizing effect may be provided in the visor body.
摘要:
A vehicle sun visor including a visor body and a support rod disposed on the visor body. The support rod is adapted to engage a support hook mounted to a vehicle cabin ceiling. The support rod includes a core rod member mounted on the visor body and an outer sleeve disposed on the outer peripheral side of the core rod member. The outer sleeve includes first and second semi-circular cylindrical sleeve halves each having at least one resilient engaging portion formed integrally therewith. The resilient engaging portions resiliently engage an outer peripheral surface of the core rod member. The semi-circular cylindrical sleeve halves may have similar configurations with each other.
