Auto-dimming rearview mirrors might not be the most well-known tech features found in many cars, but they have value. Visitors to Genesis of Annapolis can look at models that have these unique mirrors. Some may wonder what they do and how they work. Here's an overview of these mirrors.
As the name suggests, auto-dimming rearview mirrors darken when exposed to the glare of headlights. The mirrors have sensors that pick up on glare and react accordingly.
The sensors affect a gel contained in the mirror's design. The gel works to darken the glass to address problems with glare. For some, the presence of auto-dimming mirrors could be a huge positive when driving on Annapolis, MD roads. Glare from headlights might undermine a driver's ability to see the road, so anything that darkens the glare may be appreciated. Still, drivers cannot rely entirely on any tech feature for their safety. Driver must do their part, too.
