Dashboard Sensors
Optoelectronic sensor devices that enable Human-Machine
Interaction (HMI) are automated systems that monitor user input
and lighting conditions to assist the driver in optimizing the
driving environment. In addition to sensing the ambient lighting
condition, dashboard sensors can also sense force. This feature
automatically tells the vehicle how to respond to an event and
how much to respond.
Vishay's optoelectronic sensors also contain proximity and
gesture control. When tuned appropriately, the sensors can
allow passengers in the car to assist the driver in navigating the
infotainment and in operating the controls. A display dimmer
senses the ambient lighting condition and adjusts the display
brightness to match.
