VEHICLE REARVIEW ASSEMBLY INCLUDING A DISPLAY FOR DISPLAYING VIDEO CAPTURED BY A CAMERA AND USER INSTRUCTIONS

摘要

An inventive rearview assembly (10) for a vehicle may comprise a mirror element (30) and a display (100) including a light management subassembly (101b). The subassembly may comprise an LCD placed behind a transflective layer of the mirror element. Despite a low transmittance through the transflective layer, the inventive display is capable of generating a viewable display image having an intensity of at least 250 cd/m2 and up to 6000 cd/m2. The rearview assembly may further comprise a trainable transmitter (910) and a graphical user interface (920) that includes at least one user actuated switch (902, 904, 906). The graphical user interface generates instructions for operation of the trainable transmitter. The video display selectively displays video images captured by a camera and the instructions supplied from the graphical user interface.
