Automotive Converter for Rapid and Energy-Efficient Windshield Deicing and Defogging
FY 2022-23 · 2022-08-01
Summary
This project aims to provide a solution to defrost the developed ice on windshields through electrical power signals. The proposal is designed to defrost the ice in a very short period of time with respect to typical HVAC solutions. The targeted windshields are coated with a conductive solar friendly transparent sublayers that reduces the effect of solar UV exposure and allows the integration of the proposed solution.

Description (French)
Ce projet vise à fournir une solution pour dégivrer les pare-brise par le biais de signaux électriques. La proposition est conçue pour faire fondre la glace en très peu de temps par rapport aux solutions CVC typiques. Les pare-brise visés sont recouverts d'une sous-couche transparente solaire conductrice qui réduit l'effet de l'exposition aux rayons UV solaires et permet l'intégration de la solution proposée.
