A detection device with an optical device comprising at least one light source and at least one light sensitive element optically decoupled inside the detection device. A protective housing encloses the optical device. An optical cover comprising an internal surface facing the optical device and an external surface opposite to the internal surface, wherein the optical cover is transparent at the operating wavelength of the optical device, and comprises at least two separate apertures. A first aperture faces the light source and a second aperture faces the light sensitive element. The optical cover is one piece comprised of diffusing, absorbing, multilayer elements, and/or wavelength-changing elements placed between the first and second apertures in an optical decoupling zone outside the field of view of the light source and the sensitive element to avoid the stray light travelling from the light source to the sensitive element within the optical cover.

Optical cover for detection device

A laminated glazing with an optically transparent area including at least one inner and one outer glass sheet, each having an internal and an external face, and being high level of near infrared radiation transmission glass sheets, at least one thermoplastic interlayer to laminate the at least the inner and the outer glass sheets, including at least a first zone and a second zone, the second zone being delimited by the optically transparent area, and at least one optical sensor device provided on the inner face of the inner pane integrated in the optically transparent area. The thermoplastic interlayer further includes a second zone delimited by the optically transparent area where the laminated glazing has a value of infrared transmission TIR1 higher than the value of infrared transmission TIR2 of the first zone for the working wavelengths of the optical device.

Glazing with optical device

A trim element for a motor vehicle that includes at least one glass sheet having an absorption coefficient comprised between 5 mand 15 min the wavelength range from 750 to 1650 nm and having an external and an internal faces. An infrared-based remote sensing device in the wavelength range from 750 to 1650 nm is placed behind the internal face of the glass sheet.

A trim element for a motor vehicle that includes at least one glass sheet having an absorption coefficient lower than 5 min the wavelength range from 1051 nm to 1650 nm and having an external and an internal faces. An infrared-based remote sensing device in the wavelength range from 1051 nm to 1650 nm is placed behind the internal face of the glass sheet.

A detection device includes (a) a LiDAR sensing device and (b) a housing enclosing the LiDAR sensing device, the housing including at least one cover lens. At least a portion of the cover lens is made of at least one glass sheet having an absorption coefficient lower than 5 min the wavelength range from 750 to 1650 nm. The cover lens helps to protect the LiDAR sensing device from external degradation.
