Abstract

A defogger is a system to remove dew condensation from windshield of an automobile. The defogger is indispensable for passenger's safety since the dew on the windshield makes driver's visibility worse, whereas it consumes large amount of energy, hence it is required to optimize energy performance of the defogger. To discuss the analytical design of the effective defogger, it is necessary to study the measurement method and the dynamical model for the dew condensation. In this paper, we propose the new measurement method based on image processing and the dynamical model for the dew condensation.
