Window tinting system and method for a vehicle

A method for an activation or deactivation of one or more electrochromic windows of a vehicle, the method comprising:

• (a) providing a memory configured to comprise one or more executable instructions;
• (b) providing a controller configured to execute the executable instructions;
• (c) providing a vehicle comprising one or more electrochromic windows, wherein upon receiving an activation the one or more electrochromic windows will be in a dimmed state and upon receiving a deactivation the one or more electrochromic windows will be in a transparent state;
• (d) receiving, at the controller, dimming information;
• (e) analyzing, via the controller, the dimming information;
• (f) based on the dimming information analysis, via the controller, generating the activation or deactivation for at least one of the one or more electrochromic windows;
• and
• (g) transmitting, via the controller, the activation or deactivation to at least one of the one or more electrochromic windows;
• (h) providing a data center remotely located from the vehicle and remotely located from a tint restriction data module;
• (i) providing the tint restriction data module configured to produce window tint restriction data for a select location;
• wherein the vehicle is further configured to generate vehicle location data, the vehicle is further configured to transmit the vehicle location data to the data center;
• (j) generating, via the vehicle, vehicle location data;
• (k) transmitting, via the vehicle, the vehicle location data to the data center;
• (l) receiving restriction output data, compressed in a binary form, from the tint restriction data module, to identify one or more window tint restrictions at the vehicle location and, based on the one or more window tint restrictions at the vehicle location, produce restriction output information;
• wherein the dimming information is, at least in part, defined by the restriction output information and provided by the data center;
• wherein step (e) is further defined by the controller determining whether the restriction output information is present;
• and
• wherein step (f) is further defined by the controller generating the deactivation when the restriction output information is present.
