A mirror assembly having an electrically adjustably reflectivity provides for the simultaneous display of a vehicle heading and an external temperature. The mirror assembly includes a reflective device, a dual display and a control circuit. The reflective device includes a transmissive element and a reflective surface formed on the transmissive element. The dual display is located behind the reflective surface of the reflective device. The dual display visually provides the vehicle heading and the external temperature through the reflective device. The control circuit provides for the variable attenuation of light through the transmissive element of the reflective device and controls the intensity and information displayed by the dual display. An advantage of the present invention is that it provides a dual display while exhibiting currently acceptable electromagnetic interference levels.
A mirror assembly having an electrically adjustable reflectivity, the mirror assembly providing for the simultaneous display of a vehicle heading and an external temperature, the mirror assembly comprising:
A method for simultaneously displaying a first readout and a second readout through a window in an electrically adjustable reflective mirror assembly while producing an electromagnetic interference level less than about 41 dBuV/m for emissions in the frequency range from about 0.4 MHz to about 20 MHz, the first readout and second readout being simultaneously displayed on a dual display, the method comprising:
