Abstract
The present invention is a rearview mirror assembly for vehicles having enhanced features and functions comprising a first planar reflective surface providing a standard field of vision and a second longitudinally convex reflective surface providing a wider field of reward vision relative to the first reflective surface, a remote RF controlled vehicle intrusion alarm system with electronic vibration sensor, siren alarm, car finder/locator, panic alarm, rechargeable battery and key fob remote two-channel RF transmitter. The enhanced rearview mirror system of the present invention may also serve as a complete information centre, comprising a radar detector, a pager unit, a mini-camera to observe back seat passengers or exterior traffic and other activities, and a global positioning system (GPS). All of these features are combined within a functional, integrated package, which is inexpensive and easy to install.
Claims
