Abstract
A driver assist system for a vehicle includes a bracket connectable with a vehicle window. The bracket has a body portion and a camera viewing window in the body portion. A camera in the body portion has a field of view through the camera viewing window. A heat sink contacts the camera and is configured to contact the vehicle window. The heat sink extends about a periphery of the camera viewing window so that heat generated by the camera is transferred through the heat sink to an area of the vehicle window that surrounds the camera's field of view.
