A method includes receiving first dimensions of an electrochromic device and second dimensions of one or more obstructions of the electrochromic device. The method further includes generating, based on the first dimensions and the second dimensions, an obstruction map that indicates at least one of an obstructed portion or an unobstructed portion of the electrochromic device. The method further includes determining, based the obstruction map, a first desired tinting state of the electrochromic device. The method further includes causing a current tinting state of the electrochromic device to correspond to the first desired tinting state.

Automated control of an electrochromic device

Automated control of an electrochromic device is described. A method includes receiving a first image captured from a first viewpoint of an electrochromic device. The method further includes identifying at least one of an obstructed portion of the first image or an unobstructed portion of the first image. The method further includes generating an obstruction map based on the at least one of the obstructed portion of the first image or the unobstructed portion of the first image. The method further includes determining, based on the obstruction map, a desired tinting state of the electrochromic device and causing a current tinting state of the electrochromic device to correspond to the desired tinting state.

A laminated glazing includes (i) a first outer sheet of glass; (ii) an electrically powered functional film; (iii) an infrared reflecting means arranged between the first sheet of glass and the functional film; (iv) at least one first thermoplastic insert arranged between the infrared radiation reflecting means and the functional film; and (v) a second outer sheet of glass. The laminated glazing includes at least the first outer sheet with infrared reflection RIRV so that RIRV&#x2265;1.087*TLV, where TLV is the light transmission of the sheet of glass, and the infrared reflecting means is characterized by light transmission TLC so that TLC&#x2265;1.3*TIRC, where TIRC is the infrared transmission of the infrared radiation reflecting means.
