Abstract
An antiglare system in a vehicle includes a device for controlling antiglare means. The device includes at least one image acquisition means. The antiglare means is controlled as a function of a first signal of the image acquisition means. The light intensity in the passenger compartment of the vehicle is taken into account in controlling the antiglare means.

1-19. (canceled)
An antiglare system for a vehicle, comprising:
- an antiglare mechanism;
- and
- a control device for controlling the antiglare mechanism, the control device including at least one image acquisition mechanism, wherein the control device controls the antiglare mechanism as a function of a signal derived from the image acquisition mechanism, and wherein the signal derived from the image acquisition mechanism includes data regarding at least one of a head position and a face-covering of at least one vehicle occupant.
An antiglare system for a vehicle, comprising:
- an antiglare mechanism;
- and
- a control device for controlling the antiglare mechanism, the control device including at least one image acquisition mechanism, wherein the control device controls the antiglare mechanism as a function of a first signal of the image acquisition mechanism, and wherein the image acquisition mechanism is sensitive only to a partial range of the spectrum, and wherein the antiglare mechanism reduces penetration of light into the vehicle for the partial range of the spectrum to which the image acquisition mechanism is sensitive.
