Problem Statement:
Drivers struggle with sunvisors, leading to distractions and safety risks, especially when sunlight shifts direction.
Current manual sunvisor systems are inefficient, blind the driver from incoming car headlights and sunlight, increasing the risk of accidents.
There is a need for an automatic sunvisor system that dynamically adjusts based on light intensity, improving safety and convenience.
About the Innovation:
Young inventors from DiscoverSTEM developed an automatic sunvisor system that uses ambient light sensors to detect light intensity.
The system analyze the sensor data in real time and send signals to high-torque servo motors attached to the sunvisors. The motors move the sunvisors to block the light from the driver’s or passenger’s view.
The system operates automatically, adjusting the sunvisor position based on sunlight direction, while an alarm alerts occupants before movement to prevent any accidental contact with the visor.
