  • Patent number: 11931989
    Abstract: A composite pane includes an outer pane and an inner pane which are joined to one another via a first thermoplastic intermediate layer arranged directly adjacent the outer pane and a second thermoplastic intermediate layer arranged directly adjacent the inner pane, and an inlay element which is arranged in a region of the composite pane between the first thermoplastic intermediate layer and the second thermoplastic intermediate layer. The inner pane has a cutout and the second thermoplastic intermediate layer has a cutout. The cutout of the second thermoplastic intermediate layer is, when looked through, arranged completely within the region in which the inlay element is arranged, and the cutout of the inner pane is, when looked through, arranged completely within the cutout of the second thermoplastic intermediate layer.

  • Patent number: 11703383
    Abstract: A vehicle window with an anisotropic light sensor, has a first glass layer and a second glass layer, wherein an arrangement of light-sensitive elements is arranged, substantially parallel to the first glass layer, between the first glass layer and the second glass layer, wherein the pane furthermore has an aperture such that light can shine through the second glass layer and the aperture onto at least one of the light-sensitive elements, wherein, depending on the direction of incident light, the sensor provides a signal that is indicative of the direction, wherein the arrangement of light-sensitive elements has a camera chip and wherein the arrangement of light-sensitive elements is arranged on a flexible film.
