Title:
INNER MIRROR STRUCTURE WITH BUILT-IN CAMERA
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2024/080063
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
[Problem] In a configuration in which an optical axis of an infrared camera is arranged to be inclined with respect to a normal line direction of a plate surface of a mirror element, to make a ghost image resulting from a stepped part between a lens and a rear plate inconspicuous, the ghost image being included in a ghost due to an image of an internal structure of an inner mirror occurring in a captured image from the infrared camera as a result of strong external light being transmitted through the mirror element and illuminating the internal structure. This improves the visibility of the captured image, or improves a recognition accuracy based on image recognition processing of the captured image, for example. [Solution] A flat surface portion 77a and a recessed surface portion 77b are formed in a rear plate 76 arranged behind a mirror element 78. At least a portion of a lens exposure opening 82 is formed in an inclined surface of the recessed surface portion 77b, the inclined surface being inclined relative to the flat surface portion 77a. A lens 72 of an infrared camera 64 is arranged following the lens exposure opening 82 such that an optical axis L1 thereof is inclined with respect to a normal line direction of the flat surface portion 77a.
