Battery-Powered / Cordless / Clamp-On Auto-Dimming Mirror
The next generation of auto dimming rear view mirrors. AlphaMirror enables vision enhancement and protection in all driving conditions maximizing the driver's comfort. Integrated with advanced electronic functions we will lead the rear view mirror from the dimmed age into the digital world.
AlphaMirror Digital Mirror™ is based on VALiD™ technology that uses non-scattering, high contrast liquid crystal display.
With our Digital Mirror™ you gain:
- Vision protection - we protect your vision from glare during twilight and night.
- Spectral Protection™ - Best protection tinting, reduces the "blue" wavelengths and improves your vision and comfort.
- Sharper image - see more and reduce glare. Sound impossible, but we can do it!
- Adaptive switching - we change the mirror reflectance as fast as needed.
- Color Mania - The colors you love and fit your style and interior design.
Is dimming your vision is the only approach?
Absolutely Not!
Just dimming is like squinting your eyes instead of wearing sunglasses.
How it works:
Human vision adapts to ambient light levels; the retina in the eye contains two types of light "sensors", called rods and cones. The rods are active in low light levels and have no color sensitivity. The cones are sensitive to color and handle the vision color and details. During nighttime driving, the human eye is adapted to the mesopic light levels meaning that both the cons and rods are active.
Night driving exposes the driver to glare generated by other vehicles headlamps. There are two types of glare, Disability glare and Discomfort glare. Disability glare is affected mainly by the amount of light and reduces the vision performances and Discomfort glare is affected mainly by the headlamp spectrum. It was understood and reported for decades that "blue" light causes more discomfort glare then "yellow" or "red" light. A series of studies indicated that higher energy in short wavelengths increases the discomfort glare. As a driver, you may sense more of a discomfort glare generated by new vehicles equipped with HID headlamps than standard halogen headlamps. This is because HID headlamps generate bright white light that has relatively more energy in the blue spectrum.
AlphaMirror Spectral Protection™ technology adeptly tunes the reflected wavelengths and eliminates or minimizes the "blue" reflectance; therefore Spectral Protection™ will maximize the driver’s visual performance while eliminating discomfort glare.
AlphaMirror's mirror improve the driver vision under any lighting situations - day and night - and during all weather conditions.
It also increases your vision and depute perception in hazy, cloudy days, rain, snow and fog. Our mirrors filter out the blue light providing sharper image, enhanced contrast and preserve the natural balance of color. With no double image as other technologies, It is the only auto dimming rear view mirror that equal to optical class 1 eyewear standard.
AlphaMirror's technology enables reflectance changes in Milliseconds. Taking advantage of our switching speed, we adopted it to fit particular lighting conditions.
Example: while driving on a completely dark road, a vehicle with high beams appears, our mirror will switch immediately and protect your vision.
AlphaMirror Digital Mirror™ is the only mirror implementing adaptive switch function and maximize you comfort and vision.
Safe Mode
When no power is applied to the mirror, it is at clear state (maximum reflectance); when a voltage is applied to the mirror, it changes the liquid crystal molecules (similar to changing a mechanical shutter) and the LC dyes absorb the light. Disconnection of the voltage from the mirror immediately switches back to the clear state.
Only with AlphaMirror's Digital Mirror you get a true fail safe mirror.
No leakage
With AlphaMirror technology you shouldn't worry from leakages or toxic materials.
Glared during night driving?

Specs.:
- Frame Size - 10.75” x 3”
- Weight - less then 6oz, 200g
- Battery life - 1000h at dim state (mirror darken).
- Glass mirror surface
- Glass tint is integral to the mirror. The mirror is built from 2 pieces of glass with liquid crystal in between them. Very similar to any LCD TV & laptop display.
- Perfected reflective layers with no 'rainbow visual distortion effect' as associated with other older LCD mirrors. Other brands use twisted nematic (TN) LCD that has polarizers that generate "rainbow effect" but not ours. AlphaMirror image is always optically clear & visually comfortable.
- Slow transition response won't happen unless interior car temperature is below minus 30°C.
