(version française ici) measuring the road scenes visibility is a topic studied since the 60s and several approaches have been developed. most measurements using a laser and a receiver, measure the attenuation of the light power transmission to study the influence of atmospheric disturbance , or of the light power reflection to study the power of

(version française) needs for visibility measurement the visibility measurement is potentially useful for several kinds of applications : - industrial application to test the optimal setting for auto systems to restore visibility :lighting , windshield wiper washing demisting , defrosting ... - industrial application of testing and validation mark

(version française) visibility is one of the key factors of road safety. if the driver can not see anything , or is unclear , the probability of accidents is hight. it would be important then to measure visibility onboard ... this is currently done in a very indirect way : rain sensors , for example, detect the presence of rain on the windshield,

(version française ici ) visibility measurement can be accomplished in several ways: - very basic methods measure the attenuation of a light beam as a function of distance, in transmission ( through the mist , for example) or in reflection ( to test the effectiveness of the markings on the roads to improve visibility) . - heuristic approaches that

(en français) the purpose of demister is to recover the visibility through the windshield. mist can happen almost instantly on a windshield if the conditions of humidity, pressure , and temperature are met. mist may go with a transparent veil which lowers the contrast of the image in a translucent veil through which we no longer distinguish object
