Light guides are commonly used to distributively light dashboard displays, [155] and premium vehicles are beginning to use distributive systems for lighting such items as door locks, window controls, and cup holders. [156] Distributive exterior lighting has also been explored, with high-intensity central light sources. [157]
The Twilight Sentinel system uses a photoelectric cell to measure ambient light levels. This cell is typically mounted on the dashboard of the vehicle. [7] The system is designed to activate the vehicle's exterior lights when the ambient light falls below a certain threshold, typically corresponding to twilight conditions.
Also, keep in mind that ignition is based solely on the amount of natural light present and not on the height of the sun, so "unwanted ignition" may occur, for example in the presence of compact clouds associated with a significant drop in ambient light on the sensor (e.g., when there is a storm). To avoid this, twilight switches can be ...
