  • Publication number: 20260208581
    Abstract: An arrangement for an assistance system of a vehicle, includes a radiation source for emitting infrared radiation, a radiation receiver for receiving infrared radiation, a windscreen with a reflective layer, and an image display for emitting visible light, with an infrared radiation-reflecting layer. The image display is arranged relative to the reflective layer so that the visible light emitted by the image display is reflected by the reflective layer toward a face of a vehicle occupant, and wherein the radiation source and the radiation receiver are arranged relative to the infrared radiation-reflecting layer so that the infrared radiation emitted by the radiation source is reflected in the following order: via the infrared radiation-reflecting layer, the reflective layer, the face of the vehicle occupant, the reflective layer and the infrared radiation-reflecting layer to the radiation receiver, and is receivable by the radiation receiver.

  • Publication number: 20250037406
    Abstract: An arrangement for a driver assistance system of a vehicle, includes a radiation source for emitting infrared radiation, a radiation receiver for receiving infrared radiation, a windshield formed of an outer pane and an inner pane which are connected to one another via a thermoplastic intermediate layer, wherein the windshield has at least one functional layer reflecting infrared radiation, wherein the radiation source is arranged such that infrared radiation can be reflected from the functional layer as first reflection radiation onto the face of a driver, the first reflection radiation can be reflected from the face of the driver as second reflection radiation onto the functional layer, and wherein the radiation receiver is arranged such that the second reflection radiation reflected from the functional layer as third reflection radiation can be reflected to the radiation receiver and received by the radiation receiver.

  • Publication number: 20240157912
    Abstract: A pane arrangement with a heatable sensor window includes a composite pane including an outer pane having an exterior-side surface and an interior-side surface and an inner pane having an exterior-side surface and an interior-side surface, which are joined to one another via at least one thermoplastic intermediate layer; an enclosure arranged on the interior-side surface of the inner pane and having an inner surface and an outer surface; a radiation receiver and/or a radiation source, which face(s) the composite pane within the enclosure such that a beam path of electromagnetic radiation passes through a sensor window of the composite pane; a first heating element; and a second heating element. The first heating element is arranged below the beam path on the outer surface or on the inner surface of the enclosure and the second heating element is arranged in a region of the composite pane surrounding the sensor window.
