INTERACTIVE VEHICLE GLAZING
First Claim
1. A laminated vehicle glazing comprising:
- at least two glazing panes laminated together by at least one interlayer therebetween;
at least one sensor which is manually operable by the presence of a user'"'"'s hand contacting or proximal to at least one of the panes;
at least one shield associated with the at least one sensor whereby the at least one sensor is manually operable by the presence of a user'"'"'s hand from only one side of the vehicle glazing; and
at least one connector electrically connected to the at least one sensor connectable to an external device for control of the external device by manual operation of the at least one sensor.
