Since the film is attached to a flat surface, flexibility is unnecessary, but the thickness is preferably 0.01 mm or more and 2 mm or less.

Abstract

La présente invention concerne un pare-brise tel que des images photographiées par l'intermédiaire d'une plaque de verre incurvée et inclinée dudit pare-brise ne sont pas sensibles à la distorsion. Le pare-brise d'après la présente invention est utilisé pour un véhicule dans lequel un dispositif de photographie peut être installé. Ledit pare-brise comprend une plaque de verre incurvée et une région de passage de la lumière qui contient une partie de la plaque de verre et permet à la lumière d'arriver de manière incidente sur le dispositif de photographie. Le dispositif de photographie obtient une image qui est formée par la lumière incidente passant par la région de passage de la lumière. La région de passage de la lumière est conçue de telle sorte qu'une distorsion de l'image obtenue par le dispositif de photographie est atténuée.
